"LetĄ¯s just say I am in a very happy space right now. I have never spoken about my personal relationships. In fact, I have never spoken about anything to the press. Personal space is not for discussion," she is quoted by Mid-Day.
By not divulging into details, she hinted at a good relationship with the cricketer.
"I will remain just the way I am: low profile as ever. Why should I be any different just because I am linked to someone? I am not the kind who can put up a farce. I have no shame in admitting that I draw into my shell easily and come out only when I have to speak. I have big respect for ZaheerĄ¯s game," she said.
If and when the two go ahead and tie the knot, it will continue the trend of cricketers getting hitched with Bollywood celebrities.
