Avika Gor, of Balika Vadhu fame, was rumoured to be dating her Sasural Simar Ka reel life husband, Manish Raisinghan. Quite a few eyebrows were raised as Manish and Avika have an age difference of almost 14 years.

However, in a recent interview with TOI, they opened up about their equation and how it has evolved over time. Avila said:

Manish is a just few years younger than my father, so there is no scope for any romantic involvement. We share a unique bond of friendship, which is inexplicable. It is based on understanding, respect, honesty and maturity. We are BFFs and he is a strong support system. I call him Shin Chan (the popular comic character) and he calls me Mitzi (Shin Chan’s mother) till date.We have maintained our friendship in a dignified way till now. We are good friends and will always be, but I have no intention to date Manish.

There, you heard it! The two share a great chemistry on the professional front and are gearing up for a second outing at Cannes with their short film.
