After parting ways with former girlfriend Harleen Sethi earlier this year, rising Hindi film star Vicky Kaushal seems to have found love again. B-town is buzzing with rumours that the Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019) actor has lost his heart to his childhood friend and Beyond the Clouds (2018) star Malavika Mohanan. Malavika, who is new to Hindi cinema, is a popular name down South as she has starred in a number of successful Malayalam films over the past few years.

According to reports, Vicky and Malavika are childhood friends, but now their friendship has grown into love. “Vicky, Sunny (Kaushal), Malavika and her brother have known each other since they were children and enjoy camaraderie and bond together. But Vicky and Malavika apparently have become extremely close during this. Sunny and Malavika are also good friends. In Mumbai, no matter how busy he is, he will make it a point to drop in for lunch or dinner at Malavika’s home where she stays with her parents and brother. Now it seems that their relationship is becoming stronger and developing into something more intimate,” a source in the know reveals to an entertainment portal.

The source goes on to add that Malavika cannot stop gushing about Vicky. “Malavika is always talking glowingly about him to everybody. She likes him so much she cannot stop gushing about him and while Vicky is more reticent, he does these little romantic gestures like dropping in and surprising her on the sets of one of her South films and taking her out for lunch,” adds the source.

Talking about Vicky Kaushal’s upcoming projects, the much-in-demand actor is currently shooting for Shoojit Sircar’s Sardar Udham Singh. He will next be seen in Dharma Productions’ horror flick Bhoot Part 1: The Hunted Ship and period drama Takht. The actor has also signed Meghna Gulzar’s next based on the life of India’s greatest war hero Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw. Malavika Mohanan, on the other hand, next stars in Telugu film Hero.
