In these times of quarantine, while a divorced Bollywood couple (Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Khan) is making headlines for moving back in together so that they can stay close to their children, rumours of another B-Town couple, Prateik Babbar and Sanya Sagar’s marriage hitting choppy waters has taken everyone by surprise.

Raj Babbar and Smita Patil’s son, Prateik had got engaged to his theatre actor girlfriend in 2018 and the two tied the knot in January 2019. Since then, the duo had never shied away from showcasing their romance, often through passionate pictures and videos on social media. However, speculations started doing the rounds recently, when they unfollowed each other on social media and Prateik also deleted some of their honeymoon pictures.

When BT reached out to close friends of the couple, most of them remained silent and said that it was “too sensitive” an issue to talk about. One of them said, “Even if there was something or not (between the two), I would not like to comment on it.” Another source close to the couple said, “How can people jump to conclusions about a couple’s relationship status depending on whether they are following each other on social media or not?” We reached out to the couple and their families, but they did not respond to the rumour of the break-up doing the rounds.
