The relationship status between Mahira and Siraj
Despite the buzz surrounding their social media interactions, there has been no official confirmation from either Siraj or Mahira regarding their relationship status. Notably, they have never been spotted together publicly, and they do not follow each other on Instagram. This lack of direct interaction raises questions about whether their connection is genuine or merely coincidental. In past interviews, Mahira has been open about her previous relationship with Paras, which ended in 2023 after they faced challenges in their communication. Since then, she has focused on her career and personal growth.
Meanwhile, Siraj is currently with the Indian team on the tour of Australia and played an important role in Jasprit Bumrah & Co.’s victory in the Perth Test.
