Shahid Kapoor, it seems, has gotten over Kareena Kapoor.
Mumbai's local tabloid Mid-Day reported that the actor was seen with tennis star Sania Mirza in a Bangalore hotel.
Apparently, the duo met at the hotel and spent quite some time together.
'Yes, we did meet over dinner on Tuesday night, but we were in a group," Shahid clarified to Mid-Day. "My friend Shriram and a couple more friends were with us. We had dinner at the hotel I was staying in and people must have seen her entering. That's how people must have thought we had something romantic happening. After dinner, Sania went back and Shriram and I spent the night catching up on our lives in my room."
After Shahid's split with long-time girlfriend Kareena, there were rumours of him linking up with Vidya Balan. The two are currently filming Aziz Mirza's next, Lucky Charm.
But Shahid insisted he was 'single and ready to mingle.'
Sania seldom speaks about her personal life in public. The media, however, had gone on an overdrive linking her to Indian tennis player Mustafa Ghouse and Pakistani tennis player Aisam Qureshi.
