Yes, Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra are most definitely in love. Not only did Chops visit him in Chandigarh twice in December during his long schedule for Pankaj Kapoor's Mausam, Shahid actually took a day off from the same shooting schedule to be with her in Goa, where she was holidaying with her parents, brother and best friend Tamanna.
A source from the Mausam crew says, “Priyanka has come here to Chandigarh twice. On December 30 Shahid flew to Goa to bring in the New Year with Priyanka and her family. On December 30 he actually missed his flight to Goa via Mumbai, so he caught another one from Chandigarh via Delhi to Goa.” Talk about going great lengths to be with your love!
Apparently Shahid spent New Year’s Eve with Priyanka and flew back to Chandigarh on January 1. The Mausam shooting had come to a standstill for these two days.
But the source is quick to stand up for Shahid in saying that he wasn't the one responsible for a causing a delay in the shooting schedule, “We had decided to take a break for New Year's anyway. We were all there. Shahid's absence was glaring especially because his father was there. We joked about how the 'Mausam' was very romantic in Goa at this time of the year.”
Significantly, the off-and-on couple were together twice in Chandigarh last month.
Says the source, “Priyanka came over last weekend and the weekend before that. We were not supposed to know. But our art director Samir Chandra was on same flight from Mumbai to Chandigarh that Priyanka took. He innocently blurted out that he saw Priyanka on his flight.”
Apparently, Shahid and Priyanka drove to Simla after she arrived in Chandigarh.
But the couple has made every possible effort to keep their relationship away from the media glare.
Says the source, “Shahid's high profile relationship and subsequent break-up with Kareena was very hard for him to handle. But Shahid was not comfortable talking about his private life. And Priyanka for her part has never spoken about her past relationships. The pattern remains unchanged.”
But the fact is that Priyanka and Shahid are very much a couple now. According to common friends they have decided to give the relationship their best shot in 2011. That they recently signed a film together, Kunal Kohli’s next directorial venture proves that both Piggy and Sasha want to spend quality time together. And of course, that way, they wouldn’t have to spend so much on flying to different cities.
