Social media fans linking Bollywood actor Kartik Aaryan with Greek-born Instagram user Karina Kubiliute has taken an unexpected turn as the young woman publicly distanced herself from the dating rumors circulating online.

She become viral after posting her vacation photos from Goa, which spark comparisons between a casual beach snapshot shared by Kartik and another strikingly similar image posted by Karina, prompting netizens to suggest they might have been holidaying together. Some of the fans on Reddit and X pointed to identical beach loungers, matching towels and seaside angles as “evidence” of a shared trip, and some claimed the actor even followed Karina on Instagram before unfollowing her once the speculation gained momentum.

Moreover, Karina has rejected all these rumors. According to multiple entertainment news reports, she updated her Instagram bio to read “I don’t know Kartik”, a direct and unambiguous response to the mounting rumours. Which indirectly spark the curiosity among the followers.

Along with the bio modification, a screenshot that has been making the rounds on social media shows Karina saying, “I’m not his gffff!!!” in response to a comment under one of the popular posts. This casual denial swiftly went viral on fan pages and gossip threads.

Neither Kartik Aaryan nor his reps have commented on the situation as of yet. The actor, whose most recent film Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri received a lackluster reception at the box office, is no new to media interest over his personal life, with his previous affiliations regularly becoming the focus of online discussion.
