"There are no cons to dating. It's a beautiful feeling," says Vicky Kaushal, with a smile. In that instant, we are tempted to believe that he may just let us in on the secret. After all, it has been months since Bollywood is abuzz with rumours of the actor dating Katrina Kaif.

The two may maintain a studied silence about their rumoured relationship, but their actions speak louder than words. Last week, Kaif attended the special screening of Bhoot - Part One: The Haunted Ship, sending their fans into a tizzy.

Tell Kaushal how spotting the duo has become the paparazzi's favourite game these days, and he says, "I understand that the paps are doing their job. I also understand that people have an interest in our personal lives, by the virtue of us being public figures. That's fair. But it's completely up to me if I wish to share. I am not comfortable opening up my personal life for discussion. It's important to me that I guard the good things."

Rumours of the two dating sparked last October when they were seen exiting together from a friend's Diwali bash. Since then, their joint sightings have become more frequent - they were recently spotted at Ali Abbas Zafar's birthday bash. Not to mention, Kaif also attended the preview of The Forgotten Army, which was headlined by Kaushal's brother Sunny. But looks like we'll have to wait a tad longer before the newest lovebirds in B-Town drop the coy act.
