Niharika Singh who is all set to debut with Himesh Reshammiya in John Matthan Matthew's film A New Love Ishstory is dating his co-star in the film Rakesh Bapat.

The winner of Miss India Earth 2005 was earlier seeing Ruslaan Mumtaz. Though a source informs about their increasing proximity, Niharika maintains that he's just her good friend.

Niharika also adds that she hangs out both with Himesh Reshammiya and Rakesh.

Says Rakesh, "Niharika is a great person. We get along very well and are great buddies. We are both Virgos and have the same likes and dislikes."

Wonderful Niharika! That's just the beginning of your career and you are already denying link-up rumours.
