Sushmita Sen and her ex-boyfriend Rohman Shawl parted ways a long time ago, but continue to maintain a strong bond with each other. They started dating when he slipped ino her DMs on Instagram but called it quits a few years later. Even after their breakup, the two are often spotted hanging out withe ach other, with many speculating if they are back together, even though the couple hasn't said anything to that effect. In a recent interview, Rohman spoke about Sushmita and her love for diamonds and shared that he can't afford to buy such luxurious items at this point of his life.
During a conversation with Instant Bollywood, Rohman was asked if he had ever gifted a diamond to Sushmita, or had ever gotten one as a gift from her. He laughed and answered, 'Jis hisab ke unko diamond pasand hai, abhi meri aukaat nahi itna bada kharidne ki. Toh jis din uss layak banunga, inshallah zaroor. (The kind of diamonds she likes, I can not afford that right now. So the day I can afford it, god willing, I definitely will).'
He further spoke about Sushmita's love for giant diamonds and said that he is a long way from buying that. 'Unka ek pasandita diamond hai, woh 22 carats ka hai. Toh woh kamane ke liye bahot waqt hai, but inshallah jaldi. (She has a favourite diamond – it is 22 carats. It will take a lot of time to earn that much, but Inshallah, soon). That is the goal.'

In a 2022 interview with Brides Today, Sushmita was asked about her popular statement, 'I don't need a man in my life to have diamonds. I can own them myself'. She gave an example of gifting herself a 22-carat diamond ring and said, 'I have never allowed anyone to gift me diamonds. In fact, I had gifted myself a 22-carat diamond ring many years ago, which I wear everywhere. People watch me go shopping for groceries and wonder 'What is she wearing?!'. But I'm proud that I could do that for myself. For me, my diamond ring is a symbol of hope and empowerment. I believe that all women should be independent, especially financially.'
Sushmita Sen has never been married. She adopted her two daughters – Renee and Alisah – soon after she became Miss Universe.

Listicle: 10 designers behind the visuals you love

Aaquib Wani's concert scenography. Wani's bright eye-popping palette, fat squiggly letters and peppy Instagrammable props have made Lollapalooza India seem like fun even to those who haven't attended the festival. His studio also crafted the look and feel of Sunburn 2025's Underwater Ocean Symphony stage and the overrun garden city theme of Bengaluru's Bandland last year. He admits that nothing comes close to designing the Team India cricket jerseys for the 2024 T20 World Cup. Aaquib Wani is the designer behind Lollapalooza India's bright eye-popping palette. (INSTAGRAM/@AAQUIBW) Kriti Monga brings a trendy, inviting vibe to the restaurants and bookstores she designs. (INSTAGRAM/@KRITIMONGA) Kriti Monga's restaurant styling. The Delhi-based graphic designer and artist is why Delhi's Perch Wine & Coffee Bar and Smoke House Deli, Mumbai's Americano, and Bengaluru's Champaca Bookstore Library & Café have such a trendy, welcoming vibe. Monga, who runs Turmeric Design, fashions everything, from the menu, the typeface, and wallpaper. For Champaca, she crafted a forest-themed look (deer logo, olive green tones) and even picked the name, inspired by Bengaluru's summer bloom. Mira Felicia Malhotra designed the thumbnail of Spotify's I-pop icons playlist. (INSTAGRAM/@@KOKUMKOHLA) Studio Khol's Spotify thumbnails. Remember that bold, blocky, glossy text on the thumbnail of Spotify's I-pop icons playlist? It's the work of designer Mira Felicia Malhotra's Mumbai-based studio. Malhotra's work always has a bold, feminist edge. She goes for vibrant neons, characters with strong features, bodies that take up space. The firm has also done Snapchat and Instagram stickers for Diwali, mythology-themed book covers, and a T-shirt collab with Nike. Rodrigo Corral designed the cover of Sally Rooney's Intermezzo and John Green's The Fault In Our Stars. (INSTAGRAM/@RODRIGOCORRAL_) Rodrigo Corral's book covers. Sally Rooney's Intermezzo, Patric Gagne's Sociopath: A Memoir, John Green's The Fault In Our Stars, and the entire Rachel Cusk collection — the white, minimalist, picture-heavy style dominates the NYC designer's portfolio. Corral treats the creative process almost as an act of cinematography. 'You are the reason why I buy these books,' an Instagram user commented on his Insta post. Hard relate. Shamika Chaves's characters include Gopi the dog from Sudha Murty's The Gopi Diaries series. (INSTAGRAM/@SHAMIKASDOODLES) Shamika Chaves's kiddie illustrations. The children's book illustrator says her creations — exaggerated, larger-than-life, and comical — are the product of an 'overactive imagination'. Chaves's characters include Gopi the dog from Sudha Murty's The Gopi Diaries series, the little pastry chef Pinkoo Shergill, and the people in Ruskin Bond books. They're what kids growing up today associate with leisure, summer holidays and book fairs. Ann Shen's WhatsApp stickers featured women sending finger guns and flying kisses. (INSTAGRAM/@ANNDANGER) Ann Shen's WhatsApp stickers. Every WhatsApp user has been through a respond-with-a-sticker phase. In 2020, one of the packs everyone obsessively used was Shen's Fearless and Fabulous — women sending finger guns, flying kisses, and rolling their eyes. Shen, an LA-based author and illustrator, says she's 'always dreamt of creating magical things'. You can see it in her gouache-themed food sketches and her limited-edition Disney fashion collabs. Kruty's sketches are all over Blinkit's brown-paper packaging. (INSTAGRAM/@WHOISKRUTY) Kruty's Blinkit doodles. If you've seen these, you've probably made one too many late-night decisions. The Gurugram artist's illustrations (over 30) are all over the brand's brown-paper packaging. Kruty, who calls herself a 'full-time intern', posts BTS Reels about her digital doodling process. Our favs from her designs: The Christmas, Valentine's, and travel essentials themes. Brent David Freaney and his team sifted through 500 shades of green for the iconic BRAT cover. (INSTAGRAM/@SPAMRISKMISSEDCALL) Brent David Freaney's album art. How could a lime-green square with a single word in Arial font spawn a meme fest and even influence a US presidential campaign? Freaney worked on Charlie XCX's 2024 album Brat. That lazy-looking design took more effort than a glam, airbrushed stock image. Freaney and his team sifted through 500 shades of green for it. 'I wanted to go with an offensive off-trend shade of green to trigger the idea of something being wrong,' the singer has said in interviews. Animal, Jewel Thief to Sikandar — Raj Khatri's poster art is everywhere. (INSTAGRAM/@POSTERJUNKY) Raj Khatri's film posters. Khatri has created poster art for Animal, Jewel Thief, Sikandar, Housefull 5, and Tiger Shroff's upcoming Baaghi 4. Do you sense a pattern here? Dimly lit surroundings, fine dust signifying an explosion, smoke and blood. The artist, who has been designing movie and TV-show posters for over 20 years, loves textured lighting to deliver a sense of drama. Neethi's murals have shown up in Tamil Nadu, Belgium, Sri Lanka, Milan and Google Doodles. (INSTAGRAM/@KNEETHEE) Neethi's murals. The Bengaluru illustrator's art has shown up in Google Doodles, street art, and murals as far apart as Tamil Nadu, Belgium, Sri Lanka and Milan. Much of her work is about interior scenes — domestic life, a terrace at night, quotidian clutter. 'I'm drawn to the elements that often sit in the background of our lives,' she says in a social media post. In 2023, she took over a facade in the Lodhi Art District, turning it into a colourful mural that represented six global goals for sustainable development. So iconic.

Karan Kundrra Slams Breakup Rumours With Tejasswi Prakash: 'When I Do Get Angry...'

Last Updated: Karan Kundrra says he feels angry when "paid trolls" target him and Tejasswi Prakash. Karan Kundrra has reacted to his breakup rumours with Tejasswi Prakash. In a recent interview, the actor revealed that he does not get affected by the negativity surrounding his relationship. However, he admitted that he feels angry when 'paid trolls" target him and his lady love. 'To be honest, I don't get affected anymore with these rumours, I have grown past that phase. When I do get angry, it's not because of fans, or even the media. The rumours are being not spread by fans, and not even the media. Trolls don't bother me. It's the paid trolling, that's what annoys me. I mean, when you start spending money just to put someone down, that's where I draw the line," Karan told ETimes. The Laughter Chefs contestant further urged trolls to spend money for good deeds and added, 'Instead of investing in negativity, why not work on your talent? That's where the real game is. It becomes personal then. And trust me my reaction was not driven by real anger. It was a very chill version of me. A fun take. Hum kisi ko chhedte nahi par agar koi saamne se aaye toh hum chodte nahi." Karan Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash's love story is no secret. The two met inside the Bigg Boss 15 house and fell in love with each other. They have been together ever since. However, their breakup rumours also make headlines often. Earlier this month, Karan also took to his Instagram stories and shared a series of screenshots of online reports and YouTube videos, which claimed that all was not well between him and Tejasswi. Karan took a dig at the media portals and hinted that all such coverage against him is paid. 'Thoda aur paisa lagao mere shubh gali nai rahi tumhari," he wrote. On the work front, Karan Kundrra is currently seen in Laughter Chefs 2. The show is gearing up for its finale. On the other hand, Tejasswi Prakash was last seen in Celebrity MasterChef. The show was won by Gaurav Khanna. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
