Priyank
Sharma
and
Benafsha
Soonawalla
became
close
during
their
stint
on
Bigg
Boss
11.
For
the
unversed,
post
their
exit
from
the
controversial
reality
show,
they
maintained
that
they
are
just
good
friends.
It
was
only
recently
that
the
couple
made
their
relationship
official
by
sharing
a
romantic
picture
on
their
Instagram
account.
And
now,
in
an
interview
with
TOI,
Priyank
has
shared
more
details
of
their
courtship
whilst
revealing
that
they
have
been
together
for
more
than
2
years
now.
Priyank
said,
“I
had
met
Ben
through
common
pals.
We
became
good
friends
and
I
got
to
know
her
better
during
Bigg
Boss.
Both
of
us
were
single
when
we
entered
the
house.
We
felt
a
strong
connection,
especially
after
I
re-entered
the
house
post
my
eviction.
We
developed
feelings
for
each
other
but
didn’t
want
to
make
any
commitment
without
being
sure.
Once
out
in
the
real
world,
we
spent
a
lot
of
time
together
and
realized
that
we
were
in
love.
It
has
been
exactly
two-and-a-half
years
since
Ben
and
I
are
together.
She
gives
me
a
sense
of
completeness
and
we
fit
together
like
missing
pieces
of
a
puzzle.”
He
went
on
to
add,
“We
took
a
lot
of
time
to
work
on
the
relationship
and
didn’t
make
it
public
earlier
because
we
wanted
our
space
and
privacy.
Also,
in
the
current
situation,
there
is
a
lot
of
uncertainty
about
the
future
and
that
made
us
realize
that
life
is
too
short
to
keep
something
so
beautiful
private
anymore.”
Priyank
concluded
by
speaking
about
dating
amid
lockdown
and
stated,
“Of
course,
we
are
unable
to
meet
each
other
due
to
the
lockdown,
but
we
have
mostly
been
away
from
each
other
due
to
our
professional
commitments.
However,
as
they
say,
distance
makes
the
heart
grow
fonder.”
