Adding to the speculation, Bani on Sunday shared a few glimpses from the gym featuring herself and Baseer. These posts further fuelled dating rumours, with social media users discussing their growing closeness.

Baseer Ali’s past relationships

Interestingly, Baseer’s personal life has often grabbed attention, with fans linking him to several personalities over the years. He was previously associated with Temptation Island India fame Nikita Bhamidipati, and their relationship reportedly ended on a bitter note following a public fallout.

Actor on an ex-girlfriend who was ready to convert to Islam

Apart from the latest dating buzz, Baseer recently opened up about one of his past relationships and revealed that a former girlfriend was even willing to embrace Islam for him.

In a conversation with Film Window, the actor recalled falling in love with a woman who was not Muslim. However, despite her willingness to convert, he eventually decided to end the relationship because he was concerned about whether she would genuinely be able to follow the faith and its religious obligations.

Recalling their conversation, Baseer said, “That person genuinely said to me, ‘I am ready to do that.'”

He further explained that he did not want her to embrace the religion only for the sake of their relationship, without being fully committed to its beliefs and practices.
