In a recent visit to Ujjain’s Mahakaleshwar temple, Bollywood actor Janhvi Kapoor, accompanied by her rumoured boyfriend Shikhar Pahariya, engaged in the spiritual experience of bhasma aarti. The duo, often linked in dating speculations, was adorned in traditional attire during their temple excursion.
On Monday, the pair was captured in photos shared by news agency ANI, showcasing Janhvi in a graceful pink saree and Shikhar in a white kurta ensemble. According to ANI, Janhvi actively participated in the early morning bhasma aarti, partaking in special rituals, with Shikhar by her side during the pooja. Temple priests bestowed blessings upon Janhvi and presented her with a photo of Baba Mahakal. Despite the visit, Janhvi has not shared any glimpses of her trip to Ujjain on her social media platforms.
The ongoing rumors surrounding Janhvi Kapoor and Shikhar Pahariya’s relationship have been fueled by their frequent temple visits together. Although neither has confirmed nor denied their romance, the couple is frequently captured in paparazzi photos and videos during their outings.
Contrary to popular belief, Janhvi’s association with Shikhar is not a recent development. Reportedly, the two were in a relationship several years ago, which, for undisclosed reasons, came to an end. Filmmaker Karan Johar nearly confirmed their past relationship during an episode of Koffee With Karan last year. Janhvi appeared on the show with Sara Ali Khan, who was said to have dated Shikhar Pahariya’s brother, Veer Pahariya. While Janhvi and Shikhar rekindled their connection, reports suggest that Sara and Veer are no longer together.
