'They
Are
Protective'
A
source
told
Bombay
Times,
"Hiba
and
Rohan
have
been
dating
since
a
few
months
now.
They
are
very
protective
about
each
other
and
have
consciously
avoided
posting
any
pictures
of
them
together
on
social
media,
in
order
to
avoid
speculations."
Hiba
&
Rohan
Open
Up
Addressing
the
issue,
both
the
actors
Hiba
and
Rohan
who
are
seen
in
the
television
shows
Jijaji
Chhat
Par
Hai
and
Dil
Se
Dil
Tak,
respectively,
said,
"We
know
that
speculations
are
rife,
but
Hiba
and
I
are
just
friends."
Hiba
Says
She's
Been
Single
For
Long
Clarifying
the
rumours
Hiba
said,
"I
am
not
dating
anyone.
In
fact,
I
have
been
single
for
the
past
two-and-a-half
years.
Rohan
is
part
of
a
common
group
of
friends.
We
have
known
each
other
for
two
years
now
and
we
worked
together
on
a
mini-series.
After
that,
we
lost
touch
and
started
meeting
some
time
ago
because
of
our
common
friends.
Our
bonding
has
been
gradual.
I
don't
want
such
stories
to
come
out
as
my
mother
won't
appreciate
it."
The
Actress
Wants
To
Focus
On
Her
Career
"I
hail
from
a
small
town
(Bareilly)
and
she
wants
me
to
focus
on
my
work.
It's
a
huge
deal
for
her
to
even
allow
me
to
work
in
this
industry.
Though
I
understand
that
link-ups
are
a
part
of
this
profession,
my
parents
don't
think
like
that.
My
mother
knows
that
Rohan
is
a
friend
and
they
have
met
on
a
couple
of
occasions.
My
girl
pals
will
vouch
for
the
fact
that
I
am
single.
In
fact,
they
want
me
to
hang
out
with
guys
because
I
am
always
with
them."
