Singer Stebin Ben has finally addressed the growing buzz around his rumoured relationship with actor and Kriti Sanon’s sister, Nupur Sanon. After the duo were spotted together at multiple events in Mumbai
– including designer Manish Malhotra’s Diwali bash – speculation about their relationship once again took over social media.
In a new chat with Hindustan Times, Stebin clarified that he’s still single and not rushing into anything. “I haven’t announced anything yet, so of course I am still single and enjoying my life. You never know when is the right time and when it comes, I will go public about everything. I am very traditional that way,” he said.
The singer, known for his romantic tracks, has often found himself at the centre of gossip columns due to his growing closeness with Nupur. But Stebin insists he doesn’t pay attention to such talk. “It’s fine, as in this industry, people need conversations about you, so I don’t really care about it. I’m okay with people talking about me as far as it’s all positive, it’s not harming my image or reputation,” he shared.
Speaking about Nupur, he added, “Nupur’s my dear friend, so honestly, I don’t take it otherwise and I don’t try to go and clear the rumours. It’s because I feel that whatever people are talking about and making stories, I should not be concerned about it. I should be taking care of my own career and thinking of music. All of these are just perks as people love to have rumours.”
The rumours first began in 2022 when Stebin and Nupur were spotted together at events and vacations. Earlier this year, fans noticed Stebin accompanying the Sanon sisters – Kriti and Nupur – on a coastal getaway to Saint Tropez, France, for Kriti’s 35th birthday celebrations. When Nupur shared photos from the trip on Instagram, a particular snap featuring Stebin caught everyone’s attention.
While neither has confirmed the relationship, their chemistry and frequent appearances together continue to keep fans guessing. For now, Stebin seems happy to let the rumours swirl – while focusing on his music.
