Finally, Abhishek Bachchan speaks about his romantic link-up with Aishwarya Rai.

Nahi yeh musam dillagi ka (romance is not in the air).

My relation with Aishwarya is a case of misinterpretation of good friendship and it is not new for the industry. It is happening with all actors. You work with an actress in one film and people start linking you with her. The moment you sign another film with someone else, you become the heartthrob of some other woman. I don’t think I am answerable or need to clarify because the more you do, people draw different meaning from it. I agree that whatever actors do is in the public domain and so they become subject to public scrutiny. But I also believe that there are certain things, which should remain personal. Sometimes, it becomes unpleasant when people link up two co-stars without checking facts and truth.

Is he fed-up with media, for linking him to Priyanka, Rani, Dipanita and now Aish.

I have learnt to live with it because this is part of my stardom. Now, I don’t bother much about it. I have got used to it now. I don’t take such things personally. I know my heart is clear and there is nothing I am hiding. So, it doesn’t really affect, when I know I am honest and know what the truth is

How his co-stars react to such news?

They know the truth and are very normal and cool about it.
