'Are They Just Friends?' Manasi Naik's Picture With Author Rahul Khismatrao Ignites Speculation

Manasi Naik is one of the most sought-after actresses in the Marathi cinema and gained fame through songs like Baghtoy Rickshawala and Bai Wadayavar. Manasi also captures the spotlight with news updates related to personal life and her recent posts are the proof. The Baghtoy Rickshawala dance artist’s recent post with a youth ambassador from the European Parliament has sparked relationship rumours. Named Rahul Khismatrao, his Instagram bio also describes him as a space scientist and an author. Both Rahul and Manasi are all smiles as they pose for the camera in this post and Manasi captioned this picture, “Parisian magic: turning moments into memories.”

The post evoked mixed reactions from the users. While Manasi’s counterparts from the Marathi film industry showered compliments on this photo, other users criticised her. Some of them came up with a lot of nasty comments for the actress. At this point, Baghtoy Rickshawala’s followers rooted for her in the comment section and opined that she has every right to relive the happy moments in her life.

For those who don’t know, Manasi was earlier married to the fitness model and boxer Pradeep Kharera. The marriage, however, was short-lived and they chose to separate and divorce within a year. The actress’s followers were shocked at this turn of events and many wanted to know why this happened. In an interview with Hindustan Times a year and a half back, the Marathi actress had revealed that she was the sole earning member in the marriage but was still not getting the respect and mental support she deserved in the relationship.

She added, “I strongly believe in providing unwavering support to those we care about. I’ve done my part in that regard. If only one of us is contributing financially, I feel they deserve that support. If it’s absent, it’s better to end the relationship. Nowadays, many advocate for mental health awareness and stress the importance of understanding and effective communication with one’s partner. If these aspects are lacking, it’s a warning sign, and you need to walk out there and then.”
