Ranbir Kapoor and Mahira Khan trended after pictures and video of them on the red carpet of the Global Teacher Prize Ceremony went viral in March last year. This was followed by the pictures of them smoking outside a New York hotel, which triggered dating rumours. The Internet was not thrilled and trolled Mahira for smoking and wearing a semi-backless dress.
Speaking to HARDTalk host Stephen Sackur during her recent London trip, Mahira said: "One, obviously you feel violated, you are in a personal down time moment and someone has just photographed you," reports news agency IANS. Ranbir Kapoor had also released a statement after their New York pictures went viral. He said: "I've gotten to know Mahira in a personal capacity over the last few months. She is somebody who I admire and respect, for her achievements and even more for the person she is. It is very unfair the way she is being judged and spoken about."
Mahira Khan became a household name in India after her show Humsafar aired on the small screen. She made her Bollywood debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Raees. Ranbir Kapoor was last seen in Jagga Jasoos and his upcoming films are the Sanjay Dutt biopic and Brahmastra.
