Reality TV star Sorab Bedi has addressed recent viral videos with Bollywood actress Malaika Arora, which had fueled dating rumors, clarifying that the two are “just friends” and asking fans not to jump to conclusions based on social media clips.

The controversy began when a video from a party at Malaika’s newly opened Mumbai restaurant surfaced online, showing Bedi and Arora dancing and posing together. The clip quickly went viral, prompting widespread speculation about a romantic link between them.

In a recent interview, Bedi explained that they have been “just friends” for years, having met through mutual acquaintances in the modelling industry. He emphasized that their interaction at the party was purely friendly and urged people to think twice before making assumptions based on short video clips.

Bedi also expressed disappointment over how quickly a casual moment between friends was turned into gossip about a romantic relationship.

While Malaika Arora has not publicly commented on the viral video, Bedi’s statement has largely put the rumors to rest, confirming that their connection remains strictly platonic.
