A MissMalini reader wrote in to ask about Parineeti Chopra‘s current relationship status – she has been rumoured to be dating director Maneesh Sharma for some time now – so we threw the question to Industrywalla. Here’s what he had to say.

Industrywalla says: As of now, Parineeti Chopra isn’t dating anybody – she’s single. In fact, from the looks of it, the actress has been flying solo for quite some time now. Her relationship with her director friend Maneesh Sharma seems to be on the backburner. Despite intense speculation and prying, neither Maneesh nor Pari have ever been seen together in public space. In general, the two have been very guarded about their relationship and would go on record to say that they are not dating each other. Some time ago, Parineeti had even given an interview where she said that although she loves Maneesh, she sees him as a mentor more than anything else. However, from what I know, the two did have something of an on-off relationship.

This relationship, though, has met with some rough weather and it looks like they’ve both taken a break from it as of now. Currently, then, Parineeti is on her own and has actually been seen bonding with some good looking non-industry boys! She’s also been busy revamping her image and paying a lot more attention to her fashion choices, so I suppose a relationship may not be her priority at the moment.
