The rumours of Sriti Jha aka Pragya of "Kumkum Bhagya" and television actor Kunal Karan Kapoor dating have been doing the rounds for quite some time now. However, each time Sriti and Kunal are bombarded with questions on their relationship, the actors rubbish the reports claiming that they are just good friends.

And now, a source from the sets of the show confirmed it to SpotboyE that the actors are indeed in a relationship and are quite serious about each other.

Not just that, the buzz is that Sriti started dating Kunal, when she was already in a relationship with her then-boyfriend Harshad Chopra. Sriti and Harshad, who met on the sets of "Dil Se Di Dua...Saubhagyavati Bhava" dated for over a year before they parted ways. Apparently, Kunal was Harshad's best friend and Sriti's growing proximity with Kunal was the reason behind their breakup.

The report said that both Sriti and Kunal were not on talking terms with Harshad.

Earlier, a source had informed the Times of India: "They (Sriti and Kunal) are very serious about each other and are hoping that their relationship materializes into something bigger."

Although Sriti and Kunal have never admitted to their relationship, recently, Kunal was spotted partying with Sriti and the other cast of "Kumkum Bhagya," hinting that they are more than just "good friends." Sriti has bought a new house for herself in Mumbai and had invited all her "Kumkum Bhagya" co-stars for the house warming party. Several pictures from the house warming party had surfaced online and apart from the cast, Kunal was seen having a gala time with the guests.
