Is the news of Sidharth and Alia’s breakup a publicity stunt for ‘A Gentleman’?

Ever since Sidharth Malhotra started promoting his soon-to-release movie ‘A Gentleman’ with co-star Jacqueline Fernandez, rumours of them dating surfaced all around. And, then started rumours of a breakup between Sidharth and Alia Bhatt. Although, there had never been a confirmation about Sidharth and Alia’s love affair from either of them, reports of their breakup started doing the rounds. Recently, when Sidharth made an appearance on Neha Dhupia’s talk show #NoFilterNeha, he revealed that he is very much single.

Also, when asked what would his bio read on Tinder, “If at all I had my bio it would say Sundar, Susheel and Risky. All Desis would understand and the firangs would ask me for the meaning. But I wouldn’t mind trying the app.” So there started the rumours of a breakup between Sidharth and Alia. (Also Read: Sidharth and Jacqueline sizzle in ‘Laagi Na Choote’ from ‘A Gentleman’)

However, sources close to a web portal state that this is just a form of publicity for his soon-to-release movie ‘A Gentleman’. The source said, “Sidharth Malhotra’s last film ‘Baar Baar Dekho’ was a disaster. He doesn’t want to take any chances. He desperately needs a hit. He’s leaving no stone unturned to ensure ‘A Gentleman’ is a success.” In fact, stories of his lengthy kiss with Jacqueline in ‘A Gentleman’ were everywhere. The CBFC had a tough time as they censored around 70% of the kissing scenes from the movie. However, the team of the movie is denying it.

So, the news of his breakup could all be to promote his movie.
