Parineeti Chopra and Aditya Roy Kapur seem to be hitting it off with each other, say sources. The two actors, who are single and eligible to mingle — should they choose to, after their initial round of friendship — have been cast together in a Habib Faisal film titled Daawat-E-Ishq. They reportedly enjoy spending time with each other on the set and off it.

Their friendship is still in the nascent stage. Not to forget, it has often been hinted that Aditya also has a special equation with his Aashiqui 2 costar, Shraddha Kapoor.

Incidentally, when Parineeti dropped by at the Bombay Times office for the promotion of Hasee Toh Phasee, she did casually bring up Aditya’s name as one of the brightest young talents in Bollywood.

Other young actors who were recently caught in these awkward three-way friendships are: Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma; Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif. Of course, with time, their choices became all too clear. Parineeti said, “Anupam (Kher) sir, Aditya and I were like a unit of three. Always together. Eating, prepping, doing everything. It is one of the closest friendships I have and I will keep for life :)”
