Kushal on dating Riddhima Pandit
"I feel an irresistible urge to point out an important fact that the media and people's hired PR might be overlooking —An indispensable prerequisite for a break-up is an existing relationship. To the best of my knowledge, I have been single for over a couple of years, therefore, all the talk that I am hearing lately of me breaking up with whoever, Even I talk to a wall I dating that wall too. I am hoping is the figment of someone's overactive imagination. I pray for a speedy recovery (Please get well soon) I am sure none of my costars, all of whom I love (not romantically) would stoop so low as to resort to such childish gimmicks for publicity's sake. In the end, I would like to say stop milking my name: I don't have a pr company so plz take lite m glad today we have social media to say what we believe in... I don't have to give a quote to a media forum and m glad (sic)."

I don't seek publicity through others."
