After her breakup with Arjun Kapoor, Malaika Arora has been rumoured to be dating a young man named Harsh Mehta.

Malaika Arora spends Valentine's Day with Harsh Mehta

A Reddit user shared a photo of Malaika Arora and Harsh Mehta spending time together in Italy. It is assumed that the picture was clicked during their holiday in the country during Valentine's week. The Redditor captioned the image: "Malaika's Valentine at Trevi Fountain?? Spotted Malaika Arora with her (not so) little boyfriend at Trevi Fountain on 14th February…"

Not much is known about Harsh Mehta, but some reports claim that he is a diamond merchant in his early 30s.

Malaika Arora on her relationship rumours

Speaking on The Namrata Zakaria Show, Arora addressed the scrutiny around her personal life and relationships. Responding to constant link-up rumours, she said, "People like talking. If you are spotted with somebody, you go out, and it becomes a huge discussion. I don't really want to give chatter unnecessarily, too much fuel. Trust me, every time I have stepped out even if it's a longtime friend, a gay friend, a married friend, an old friend, a manager or anybody - I am immediately linked to that person. We laugh and joke about it. My mother calls me and asks, ‘Who is this now, baby? Who are they talking about?' It has just become laughable."

She further spoke about how her relationships often become headline news. "My relationships have always been spoken about and they've always made headlines. At one point, I remember saying that my life is much more than just my personal life. It was becoming too much of a centre of attention. Unfortunately, people forget that because it doesn't make a headline or copy. I am at that stage of life now where I don't need to prove anything, but I need to do things that make me happy, and I want people to see that."
