'Is it criminal to go out with a friend?'

Actor Rajeev Khandelwal defends girlfriend Aamna Sharif, but refuses to deny they've split!

After media reports of TV actors Rajeev Khandelwal and Aamna Sharif having split, Rajeev still refuses to come out and clear the air. An upset Rajeev says, "There have been several reports about us - from us going furniture shopping to going to pubs and now splitting! I don't want to say anything and quash any report."

Does that mean they are a couple? "I am not saying anything about that either. How many times should I clarify? I would be stupid to react to a story like that," he fumes.

It is also speculated that Aamna has started getting close to her colleagues Shabbir Ahluwalia and Mishal Raheja. Apparently, Aamna was seen cosying up to Mishal at a pub last weekend. To that, Rajeev says, "Is it criminal to go out with a friend?"
