Triptii Dimri made headlines in December 2023 amid rumours of her relationship with hotelier Sam Merchant circulating online. At that time, Dimri shared a joyful picture with him from a wedding they attended. Now, amidst the success of her recent film Animal, Dimri has extended a heartfelt birthday wish to her rumoured partner, sharing a throwback photo from 2017 alongside a recent one from 2023.
Celebrating Sam Merchant's birthday, Triptii Dimri took to her Instagram stories to convey her wishes. She posted a collage featuring two images, one captured in 2017, showcasing Dimri in a cheerful moment while Merchant poses for the camera. Accompanying the images, Dimri added a humorous caption, playfully comparing the two photos.
She wrote, "Happy Birthday, @sam__merchant (red heart emoji). I wish we could be as thin again without having to skip Ram shaam pani puri."
Following the initial dating rumours, a comment made by Merchant on one of the actor's posts garnered significant attention. In December, Dimri shared a captivating video from her vacation, immersed in the serenity of nature. Merchant promptly commented on the post, expressing, "Beautiful."
Who Is Sam Merchant
Sam Merchant is known as the founder of Casa Waters, a luxury VIP accommodation, and Avoure Goa. Previously, he worked as a model before venturing into the business of exotic beach clubs and hotels in Goa. Additionally, he is recognised as a travel blogger and boasts over 250k followers on Instagram.
Despite widespread speculation, a source close to Tripti Dimri has refuted the rumours of her dating, asserting that she is currently single. Zoom last year reported that the rumours linking Triptii with Sam are unfounded, attributing them to imaginative minds and the common occurrence of such speculations not only in Bollywood but also in various spheres of life today.
Triptii Dimri was previously linked with Karnesh Sharma, brother of Anushka Sharma. However, rumours of their split emerged in June last year following their unfollowing of each other on Instagram and the deletion of their pictures together.
On the professional front, Triptii Dimri is set to star alongside Vicky Kaushal in Anand Tiwari’s Mere Mehboob Mere Sanam. She also has a project with Raaj Shaandilyaa titled Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video. Additionally, Pinkvilla reported last month that Triptii Dimri and Kartik Aaryan will collaborate for the first time in Anurag Basu's Aashiqui 3.
