Lalit Modi and Sushmita Sen
When Lalit Modi publicly declared his “relationship” with Bollywood actor Sushmita Sen on social media last year, it generated widespread speculation that the two were planning to wed soon.
Last year, Modi uploaded several images with Sushmita Sen on Instagram, referring to her as his “Better looking partner” and expressing excitement for “new beginnings.” Sen later clarified on Instagram that she was not engaged to Modi, however she did not deny their relationship.
Lalit Modi and Sushmita Sen haven’t shared any images together in months, and there haven’t been any reported sightings in public, leading many to believe that the couple has broken up.
