'Rishton Ka Saudagar - Baazigar' lead pair sign no-dating clause

Vatsal Sheth and Ishita Dutta

Vatsal Sheth may have spoken about his "cosmic connection" with his Rishton Ka Saudagar - Baazigar co-star Ishita Dutta, but we hear that makers of the soon-to-be-aired TV show had made the lead pair sign a no-dating clause before they embarked on a reel romantic journey. As per the conditions, the duo is not allowed to date each other or a cast/ crew member.

When we got in touch with the actor, he confirmed the story, adding, "It is one of the clauses in my contract laid down by the makers. I laughed when I first heard about it, but the producer explained the reason and I agreed with him. Basically, in the past, they have had bitter experiences when two actors started dating and eventually, broke up. So, after they parted ways, they didn't wish to work together. It becomes difficult for the production house to deal with it."

Asked if he happens to like any of his co-stars, Vatsal says he doesn't know what the future holds for him. "It would be one of costliest love stories anyone would know of. I will end up losing a show. I know I cannot predict the future and say that I will never fall in love (with a co-actor or crew member), but let's see what happens if such a situation arises," he adds.
