Nupur Sanon Turns A Casual Mumbai Afternoon Into A Style Moment
Last Updated: With her signature calm and composed appearance, Nupur Sanon struck a few poses and her warm presence instantly won hearts. In a rare sighting, Nupur Sanon was spotted in Mumbai on Thursday, bringing her effortless charm to what seemed like a casual day out. The actress and entrepreneur arrived for a meeting when she was captured by the photographers. Before heading inside the venue, she took a quick pause to greet the paparazzi waiting outside. With her signature calm and composed appearance, she struck a few poses and her warm presence instantly won hearts. For the outing, Nupur kept things chic yet understated in a printed black midi dress that perfectly showcased her relaxed style. She chose minimal makeup, letting her natural beauty take centre stage, reminding us that sometimes, less really is more. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Snehkumar Zala (@sneyhzala) Nupur Sanon often grabs headlines for her rumoured relationship with singer Stebin Ben. Not long ago, she jetted off on a coastal vacation in Saint Tropez, France, to celebrate sister Kriti Sanon's 35th birthday, where Stebin also joined the siblings. She also uploaded a carousel of pictures from the vacation on social media, one of which stole the most attention. The reason? Nupur posed with her rumoured beau Stebin Ben in the snap. While she had her arms around the singer's neck, Stebin held her close, holding her by her waist. She was dressed in a metallic bronze cut-out midi dress in the photo, whereas the singer looked dapper in a sleeveless black vest and matching trousers. The side note read, 'Vacay Dump 1/451678." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Nuupur Sannon (@nupursanon) Nupur Sanon and Stebin Ben were first linked together in 2022 and since then, they have been spotted together on several occasions.. The duo, however, continues to maintain that they are single. Earlier in a conversation with Hindustan Times, Stebin said, 'As an artist, it's very difficult for me right now to take out time for a relationship. When you're on the road for 25 days out of 30 in a month, you don't have time to focus on anything else." Addressing the rumours around his relationship with Nupur Sanon, he added, 'Nupur and I have an amazing equation. We're very close. I've spent a lot of time with her, and I don't think I've that kind of bond with anyone else. Who knows what will happen in the future? I'm talking about the present, and right now, I'm not getting any time for a relationship." On the work front, Nupur Sanon rose to fame with her appearance opposite Akshay Kumar in the music video Filhall (2019). She was also a part of its sequel, Filhall 2: Mohabbat and in 2023, she had her acting debut with the JioHotstar comedy-drama series Pop Kaun.
