Actor Rana Daggubati has been linked to actress Bipasha Basu ever since they acted together in Dum Maaro Dum. Later, the speculations on their alleged romantic link were fuelled up when she partied with him on New Year’s Eve and even paid a visit to Rana when he was injured during the shooting of an action sequence in Telugu film Krishnam Vande Jagatgurum.

While talking about his relationship with the actress, Rana once again slammed the reports that he has been dating her. "She is a dear friend, a good friend and will remain so. That's about it. There's no romance, no dating, nothing," he said in an interview.

The actor also revealed that he already has a girlfriend. "I'm seeing someone... let's not get into the whos and hows. I would like to keep mum about it right now. I don't want speculations." However, the actor also said that his girlfriend is from Hyderabad and has not thought about the marriage yet.
