Neha Dhupia

Neha Dhupia has slammed reports that she and Yuvraj Singh are an item.

"Linking me with Yuvraj is the most ridiculous thing to do. It's absolutely untrue! I have known him for a really long time. He is a very close friend," says Dhupia. [via DNA]

Dhupia, who split with long term boyfriend, squash player Ritwik Bhattacharya, last summer, refuses to say if she is in relationship with someone else.

Unlike Dhupia, Yuvraj Singh was categorical in asserted his single status during a recent interview.

"Why aren't people happy with me being single? I just want to concentrate on cricket now," he said.
