The 41-year old met the twenty-some thing at a party a few months ago and they instantly bonded. The duo has been seeing each other ever since, reports Times of India.
Revealed a source, "Anurag is crazy about her and fondly calls her Sabby.
They recently went on a trip to Europe and spent a few days in Paris. He seems really happy and believes that Sabby has brought stability to his life at a time when his marriage to Kalki Koechlin was on the rocks."
When Mirror met Anurag at his Andheri office he looked sunny, settled and had lost a substantial amount of weight. "I've been working out a lot and Bombay Velvet is shaping up well," he smiled. But he has another reason to smile. Is he in love, "Yes, I am dating someone," he admits, without beating around the bush. "I'm in a really happy phase right now."
Is it because of his AD Sabrina? He nodded, "I have never camouflaged my personal life. If I'm dating someone, I won't hide it."
Anurag was earlier married to Aarti Bajaj, who has edited all his films except for the upcoming Bombay Velvet. They have a daughter, Aaliya.
After divorcing Aarti in 2009, he was in a live-in relationship with actress Kalki Koechlin, whom he married in April 2011. They mutually decided to separate in November 2013. They are not officially divorced and Kalki and Anurag have been living separately for a while now.
Asked if Kalki knows about Sabrina, he said, "Of course, she was the first person I confided in. She is happy that I am happy."
However, the film maker says he's not ready to take another plunge just yet. "Right now, we are just seeing each other. Let's see how far it progresses," he said.
Even though he is preoccupied with the post-production of his magnum opus Bombay Velvet, Anurag has taken time out to present a documentary, The World Before Her. Directed by Nisha Pahuja it has won awards at several international film festivals. "It's probably one of the most important films to come out of India and I'd urge everybody to see it."
