Who Is Rachit Singh, Huma Qureshi’s Rumoured Boyfriend from Varanasi? Inside The Acting Coach’s Career Journey, Educational Path, Lifestyle, And Bo...
Times Now
There’s a particular kind of buzz that sweeps through Mumbai’s entertainment circuit every now and then—one that doesn’t come from a trailer drop or a box-office clash but from something far more fascinating
to the public eye: a candid moment. A fleeting glance, a hand held too long, a hug that wasn’t meant for the paparazzi but somehow belongs to them anyway. Over the past week, Huma Qureshi has found herself right in the centre of such a storm. Already juggling applause for Delhi Crime 3 and Maharani 4, the actress has now unintentionally gifted the internet a new obsession—her rumoured relationship with acting coach and actor Rachit Singh. And like any Bollywood plot twist, this one arrived with music, lights and a kiss captured at Himesh Reshammiya’s concert. Before we knew it, the video had spread everywhere. Fans were replaying it, decoding body language, and discussing whether this was the softest moment in celebrity dating history. And so, naturally, curiosity followed. Who exactly is Rachit Singh? How long have the rumours been swirling? And why is this couple suddenly everyone’s favourite talking point? Let’s dive right in.
Huma Qureshi’s Rumoured Boyfriend: The Viral Moment That Started It All (Again)
During Himesh Reshammiya’s concert in Mumbai, Huma was spotted in a denim co-ord set, completely engrossed in the music and in conversation with Munawar Faruqui. The atmosphere was loud, electric and chaotic—until it suddenly wasn’t. Rachit Singh stepped closer, leaned in gently and wrapped his arms around Huma from behind. What followed was a tender forehead kiss that sent the internet into a collective swoon. It was the sort of public moment that isn’t meant to be dramatic, yet somehow becomes the highlight of the night. In another clip from the same evening, the two were seen vibing to Himesh’s ever-energetic Hookah Bar, joined by Sanya Malhotra and Fatima Sana Shaikh. One can imagine the nostalgia levels soaring.
Fun fact: Himesh Reshammiya’s Hookah Bar was once one of the most lip-synced Bollywood tracks in North Indian college festivals. Some things simply refuse to fade.
Huma Qureshi’s Rumoured Boyfriend: The Rumours Didn’t Begin Here
This wasn’t their first public appearance together. In fact, whispers about Huma and Rachit being more than just friends began months ago. They attended Diwali parties together, walked the red carpet at the screening of Thamma, and showed up at events in coordinated outfits—Mumbai’s unofficial sign of seriousness. At one point, fans were convinced they had secretly got engaged, thanks to a rather cryptic social-media post by a friend who hinted at the couple celebrating “something special”. Their most recent outing before the concert was at Myntra’s MyGlamFest, where they arrived together amid growing chatter that they had exchanged rings in September.
So, Who Exactly Is Rachit Singh?
If you haven’t heard his name before, don’t worry—you’ve definitely seen his work. Born in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, Rachit moved to New Delhi in 2012 to pursue modelling. Four years later, he shifted to Mumbai, determined to build a life in entertainment. His turning point came when he trained under the celebrated Atul Mongia and began working within the Artist Collective. Soon enough, Rachit carved a niche for himself as an acting coach. His workshops became widely sought after, and his student list grew impressively long. As reported by Moneycontrol (credit: Moneycontrol), he has conducted more than 100 workshops—a sizeable number in an industry that thrives on reinvention.
His training roster reads like a mini Filmfare guest list:
Alia Bhatt, Ranveer Singh, Vicky Kaushal, Varun Dhawan, Gulshan Devaiah, and many more. Eventually, he set up the Rachit Singh Workshop, becoming a familiar name for actors prepping for emotionally complex roles. Fun fact: Several actors who trained under him reportedly continued working with him even after their debut successes—a rare show of trust in an industry constantly chasing the new.
Rachit’s Shift To Acting
Despite building a steady reputation behind the camera, Rachit eventually stepped in front of it. He made his acting debut in the 2024 OTT series Karmma Calling, followed by a cameo in Thamma, starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna. His screen presence was brief but noticed—partly because industry insiders already knew him well, and partly because viewers enjoy discovering new faces who aren’t typical Bollywood imports.
Huma’s Career At The Moment
While her personal life grabs headlines, Huma’s professional journey is also in an excellent phase. She recently delivered a chilling performance as Badi Didi in Delhi Crime 3, a character that sits far away from her usual roles, earning praise for her layered portrayal. Fans have also appreciated her return as Rani Bharti in Maharani Season 4, where the politics were twisty, the stakes high and the performance grounded yet fierce. Up next is Geetu Mohandas’ anticipated film Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups—starring Yash, Kiara Advani, Nayanthara and Tara Sutaria. The film is expected to release in 2026, and the ensemble alone promises cinematic fireworks.
Their Relationship Timeline (As Much As the Public Knows)
The earliest hints of their romance came from social-media interactions—likes, comments and shared posts that fans immediately analysed. Then came the public appearances, one after another. By the time they attended Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal’s wedding in matching pink outfits, it was clear that they were no longer trying to hide anything. A source quoted by HT City even claimed that Rachit proposed to Huma during a private trip to the United States. The report suggested that it was an intimate, quiet affair—quite unlike the dramatic engagements Bollywood is used to. Neither has confirmed anything officially, but their comfort in public tells its own story.
Where Things Stand Now
If social media is any indication, fans are already rooting for them. The pair appear content, grounded and refreshingly natural—a contrast to the carefully curated public relationships the industry often sees. Whether or not an official announcement arrives soon, one thing is certain: their journey together has already captured widespread attention. And judging by the way Rachit looked at Huma at that concert, this story is just beginning.
