Sushmita Sen and Lalit Modi become the talk of the hour as the latter posted pictures of the new couple from their Maldives-Sardinia vacation.

Bollywood actor and former Miss Universe, Sushmita Sen, has been avoiding the dating league for quite some time. Sushmita Sen adopted two daughters at the age of 24, namely, Alisah and Renee. Speaking in an interview with Twinkle Khanna, Sen revealed that she has had interesting men in her life but she couldn't marry them because they were a "letdown".

"I came close to getting married thrice. All three times God saved me. I can’t tell you what disasters followed with their respective lives. God did protect me, but also because God protected these two kids, he can’t let me get into a messy affair," she quoted.

Former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi shared that he is dating Sushmita Sen through a social media post where he referred her as his "better half". Amid their marriage rumours, Modi clarified saying that the two are "just dating" and as for marriage, "That too it will happen one day."
