Meezaan
Jaffrey,
son
of
Jaaved
Jaaferi,
made
his
debut
in
Bollywood
with
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
production
Malaal
in
2019.
While
his
debut
movie
failed
to
impress
the
audience,
the
actor
often
finds
himself
in
news
for
his
rumoured
linkup
with
Amitabh
Bachchan's
granddaughter
Navya
Naveli
Nanda.
Recently
in
a
chat
with
ETimes,
Meezaan
maintained
that
he
and
Navya
are
just
good
friends
and
that
their
linkup
rumours
did
give
him
a
tough
time
of
sorts.
He
said
that
it's
unfair
for
her
name
to
come
up
in
a
lot
of
place
because
of
him.
The
tabloid
quoted
him
as
saying,
"It's
been
such
a
long
time
since
someone
asked
me
about
Navya.
I
was
promoting
Malaal,
it
was
like
boom
boom
boom,
coming
my
way.
But
honestly,
me
and
Navya
are
really
close
friends
and
I
think
because
of
me,
her
name
has
come
up
in
a
lot
of
place
and
that
is
unfair.
It's
her
private
life.
I
don't
want
to
include
any
of
her
family.
It's
really
unfair
to
be
talking
about
someone
else
at
this
point
of
time."
During
the
course
of
the
interview,
Meezaan
also
revealed
that
his
parents
would
ask
him
about
what
was
cooking
between
the
two
and
it
became
awkward
for
him
to
enter
his
own
house.
"At
that
time,
it
was
awkward
for
me
to
enter
my
own
house.
My
parents
were
giving
me
looks.
And
they
were
like
'what
is
this?' and
I
was
like
'even
I
don't
know,'
Meezaan
told
the
leading
daily.
He
also
opened
up
on
how
even
going
to
Amitabh
Bachchan's
home,
Jalsa,
would
get
awkward
with
the
paparazzi
following
him
as
they
would
know
when
he
would
visit
Navya
as
they
knew
his
car
and
number
plate.
"I
last
went
there
when
they
hosted
a
Diwali
bash.
The
entire
industry
was
there.
Jalsa
is
actually
a
monument,
you
cannot
be
missed
by
the
paparazzi
if
you
go
there," adding
that
the
awkwardness
is
gone
now.
Meezaan
further
told
ETimes
that
he
and
Navya
became
friends
because
of
his
sister
and
Navya
being
best
friends.
Both
the
girls
studied
together
in
New
York."Plus,
our
family-
hers
and
mine-
are
in
movies.
So
we
know
each
other,"
the
actor
said
to
put
all
rumours
to
rest.
Speaking
about
work,
Meezaan
will
next
be
seen
in
Priyadarshan's
Hungama
2
alongside
Paresh
Rawal,
Shilpa
Shetty
and
Pranitha
Subhash.
The
comic
caper
is
slated
to
release
on
July
23
on
Disney+
Hotstar.
