Actor Karan Kundrra, currently in a relationship with Tejasswi Prakash, has found himself amidst social media buzz after a purported profile of him on the dating app Bumble went viral. Screenshots of the profile quickly spread across various platforms, sparking debate among netizens regarding its authenticity.
The viral screenshot displays a casually dressed Karan Kundrra in a beige t-shirt and jeans, with his age listed as 40. This detail immediately caught the attention of fans, considering his relationship with Tejasswi Prakash, his co-contestant from Bigg Boss 15, which began in 2021. The couple's romance has been highly publicized, with frequent displays of affection both in public and on social media.
Adding fuel to the fire, Karan Kundrra had previously been associated with Bumble as a brand ambassador during his relationship with ex-girlfriend Anusha Dandekar. This past connection led to speculation, with some wondering if the profile's appearance was linked to a previous campaign or if it indicated recent activity. It remains unclear whether the profile is new or an old, unused account.
The screenshots first surfaced on Reddit, triggering divided reactions. While some fans expressed surprise and questioned the profile's existence given his relationship with Tejasswi, others dismissed the images as potentially manipulated or fake. Doubts were also raised about the reliability of dating app verifications. Some users claimed the photo looked edited, while others asserted that Bumble's verification process is flawed. One user wrote, "Idk if this legit but the profile says Photo Verified.. Isn't he dating Tejasswi?". Another commented, "Yar bumble ka verification useless h. Most probably a fake profile,".
As of now, Karan Kundrra has not publicly addressed the viral screenshots. Given his and Tejasswi's popularity and significant fan following, the alleged Bumble profile has become a widely discussed topic online, with many eagerly awaiting clarification.
In the past, Karan has addressed rumors surrounding his relationship with Tejasswi, including those about a breakup. He has also shut down speculation about wedding plans, clarifying that there are no immediate plans for marriage and dismissing rumors of a Dubai wedding or a reality show based on their wedding.
The current situation underscores the intense scrutiny celebrities face concerning their personal lives. Regardless of the profile's authenticity, the incident demonstrates how quickly social media can amplify speculation surrounding public figures.
