Shamita Shetty and Raqesh Bapat broke the hearts of their fans after they announced that they are no more together. The two clarified in a long Instagram post that they have called it quits. The ex-couple fell in love during Bigg Boss OTT and Raqesh made a wild card entry in Bigg Boss 15. Though his journey on the show was a short one due to his health concerns, their love continued to blossom even after the show ended.
Now, Shamita's Rakhi brother Rajiv Adatia, opened up about Shamita and Raqesh post their break up and he revealed that Shamita is fine and that both of them are "chilling".
He also revealed that "things change when you come out of Bigg Boss" and according to him, they are "better as friends".
Rajiv told ETimes, "When you are in a show like that, you get attached to people very quickly. Shamita and Raqesh tried to make the relationship work; they were dating when they came out of the show. There was a lot of love there, and there still is.”
"But sometimes things don’t work out – sometimes distance doesn’t help, lifestyles don’t match – and that’s okay. Things change when you come out of the BB house. But they are still friends and love each other a lot. I think they are better as friends. I met Shamita after the breakup, and she is doing fine. They are both chilling", he added.
Earlier, announcing her break up with Raqesh, Shamita shared a note which read, "I think it's important to make this clear..Raqesh n I are no longer together and have not been for a while, but this music video is for all the beautiful fans who've given us so much love n support. Do continue to shower us with ur love as individuals too, Here's to positivity and new horizons. Love and gratitude to you all."
Raqesh Bapt too shared a note, "I would like to share with you all that Shamita and I are no longer together. Destiny made our paths meet in the most unusual circumstances. Thank you so much to the Shara family for all the love and support. Being a private person, I did not want to publicly announce parting ways. However, I feel we owe it to our fans to put this out. I am mindful that this will break your hearts but you can continue to shower your love on us as individuals too. Looking forward to all your support. This music video is dedicated to all of you."
