Kim Sharma Leander Paes relationship official? Actor Kim Sharma may just have confirmed the rumours about her dating former tennis star Leander Paes with a social media post.

Rumours suggesting that Sharma was dating Paes surfaced in July this year when pictures of their vacation in Goa surfaced online. The image was shared by a Goan restaurant by the name Pousada By The Beach. "Biscuit & Chai hosting Leander Paes and Kim Sharma at Pousada by the Beach," read the post by the restaurant. Read about it here.
Neither Sharma not Paes, an Olympic Bronze Medalist, have confirmed or denied rumours regarding them being in a relationship. However, the new post by Sharma on Instagram is touted be a confirmation from the couple.
In July this year, filmmakers Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari and Nitesh Tiwari had announced their new project- a docu-drama that would cover the mercurial partnership between Paes and Mahesh Bhupati- the two renowned tennis stars of India from 90s. Titled BreakPoint, the documentary has been one and a half year in making. Read more on that here.
