"Trust the timing of your life," read a quote that Athiya shared on Instagram. To which, Vikram quickly replied, "You seem to be v hyper and excited these days ??? Let's go to KL ??? ..... Kuala Lumpur ????"

After reading Vikram's cheesy comment, Athiya replied to him saying that it's now time to block him. But Vikram was just not ready to let go. He further added a comment giving subtle hints about Athiya and Rahul's relationship, "I will complain to the UMPIRE !! @athiyashetty and once your WICKET is gone ... it's back to the pavilion !!!"

Earlier, a source had told Bollywood Life that "Rahul and Athiya have been going around with each other and things are quite serious between them. However, a source close to Rahul had denied dating any of the actresses he has been linked with.

It remains to be seen if Athiya and Rahul accept their relationship in the days to come.
