Meanwhile, Ananya Panday commented, “Shaheeeeen! Soooo happy for you (red heart emoticons) all the love and joy in the world.”
Exactly a year ago in April, Shaheen had made her relationship with fitness coach Ishaan Mehra Instagram official. She kept her chin on Ishaan’s shoulder as he clicked a selfie. The next photo showed Ishaan lying on the grass. Earlier last year, too, Shaheen had shared photos with Ishaan on Instagram but had not revealed his identity. The Kapoor and the Bhatt families took a trip to Thailand during the New Year. Taking to Instagram, Shaheen shared a bunch of pictures from the trip. In a photo, she posed next to Ishaan. They cuddled while on a cruise in another picture.
Shaheen was previously in a relationship with comedian Rohan Joshi. They parted ways a couple of years ago.
