Akanksha Puri gets candid about her friend Sidharth Shukla

Television actress Akanksha Puri has hit the headlines again. The actress, who is otherwise in news for her breakup with Bigg Boss 13 Paras Chhabra, is back in the limelight for some other reason. If you’re wondering that she has confirmed her participation in Bigg Boss 14, then you’re mistaken as the actress has denied doing the show this year. Also, it’s quite known that Akanksha was rumoured to be dating Bigg Boss 13 winner Sidharth Shukla. However, the two never confirmed the same. But the actress has been good friends with him for the longest time now.

In a recent interview, the actress got candid about her friendship with the Dil Se Dil Tak actor.  Heaping praise on him, Akanksha called him an intelligent, sensible and sorted man.

Talking to interviewer Siddharth Kannan, she said, “I feel any girl who will date Sidharth will be really lucky. He is a very intelligent, sorted and sensible man. Sidharth is also very straightforward. He has the guts to say what is in his mind, and stand by that. He has immense knowledge and loves to share that with people.”

The actress further admitted that things between them never progressed to the level of dating and relationship. And it is because she started seeing someone else, however, she doesn’t regret it now.

Meanwhile, Akanksha has confirmed her ouster from Viganharta Ganesha, the show which she did with Paras before he entered Bigg Boss 13. As far as Sidharth is concerned, the actor is rumoured to co-host the new season of Bigg Boss with Salman Khan. He will be reportedly monitoring the performances of other contestants and will put forth his own point of view. The actor was last seen in a music video called Dil Ko Karaar Aaya with Neha Sharma.
