CONFIRMED: Meezaan Jaaferi Is Not Dating Navya Naveli Nanda

Meezaan Jaaferi is all set for his upcoming release Malaal with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's niece Sharmin Segal. Meezaan Jaaferi was seen alongside Amitabh Bachchan's granddaughter Navya Naveli Nanda which had led to speculations of them dating each other.

Squashing the rumors, Meezaan Jaaferi revealed that he is very much single and is not dating Navya Naveli Nanda. He claimed that he is "just friends" with Shweta Bachchan Nanda's daughter Navya.

In a recent conversation with a renowned newspaper, Meezaan Jaaferi said, "I am not dating her. We used to study together in New York and the photograph that went viral showed us going for a movie. I had covered my face (in the picture) because I did not want social media exposure at that time. In fact, I don’t want to be in the news for my personal life. I believe that social media should be used selectively. I am currently single and am only focussing on my work."

When asked about his love life, he said, “I want my partner to be grounded and independent — someone who has her own mind. It does not mean that she has to agree with me on everything. Looks fade after some time, what lasts in a relationship is the emotional connect. She should have a strong value system and also connect with my family.”
