Aamrapali Dubey on Nirahua dating rumours: 'He keeps asking me to get married'
Synopsis
Inside the Bigg Boss 20 house, Aamrapali Dubey put the decade-long dating rumours to rest in her own words — calling Nirahua her best friend, not her partner, and pointedly noting that he keeps asking her to get married while she pushes back on how lightly men treat that word. It is the most direct she has ever been on the subject.
Key Takeaways
Aamrapali Dubey addressed Nirahua dating rumours inside the Bigg Boss 20 house on 29 September 2026 .
She described her bond with Dinesh Lal Yadav (Nirahua) as a 'no-filter friendship', not a romance.
Aamrapali revealed that Nirahua repeatedly urges her to marry, and pushed back on how casually men treat the idea of marriage for women.
The duo's on-screen partnership began with Nirahua Hindustani in 2014 , which was also Aamrapali's Bhojpuri debut.
They have since appeared together in over seven films including Nirahua Chalal London and Sher Singh .
Bhojpuri actress Aamrapali Dubey has broken her silence on the persistent rumours linking her romantically with co-star Dinesh Lal Yadav, popularly known as Nirahua, clarifying that the two share a deep, no-filter friendship — not a romance. The actress addressed the speculation on 29 September 2026 inside the Bigg Boss 20 house during a candid exchange with fellow contestant Luv Gill.
What Aamrapali Said About Their Bond
Describing her relationship with Nirahua, Aamrapali said: 'When I came to the Bhojpuri industry, my best friend was Dinesh ji. Till today, I mean, if there are eight people in this room. I have to say something to these eight people. So I don't need to say anything to Dinesh ji. I will just look at him. He will know what I want to say and he will start laughing. So friends should be like this. No-filter friendship.'
The remark offers a rare window into a bond that has been the subject of fan curiosity since the two first appeared together on screen more than a decade ago.
Her Response to the Marriage Talk
Addressing the dating rumours directly, Aamrapali added: 'People think that Dinesh ji and I are dating. Poor Dinesh ji has gone crazy by confessing that I should marry someone in my life. What should I tell him? Actually, people think that marriage is so easy. They don't understand that we (girls) will have to leave everything which has been made for so many years. So boys find this word very easy — Get married.'
The statement drew a candid, if pointed, contrast between how women and men perceive the stakes of marriage — a thread that resonated widely on social media after the clip circulated online.
A Decade-Long On-Screen Partnership
Aamrapali and Nirahua are among Bhojpuri cinema's most recognised on-screen pairs. Their collaboration began with Nirahua Hindustani in 2014, which also marked Aamrapali's debut in the Bhojpuri film industry. She had previously featured in Hindi television serials including Saat Phere: Saloni Ka Safar, Maayka, and Rehna Hai Teri Palkon Ki Chhaon Mein.
Following the success of that debut, the duo went on to share the screen in a string of films — Patna Se Pakistan, Nirahua Rickshawala 2, Raja Babu, Nirahua Hindustani 2, Nirahua Hindustani 3, Nirahua Chalal London, and Sher Singh — cementing their status as a bankable pairing in the regional film circuit.
How Their Association Began
Aamrapali has previously recounted that her entry into Bhojpuri cinema was itself tied to Nirahua. According to her account on Bigg Boss 20, Dinesh was searching for a fresh face for Nirahua Hindustani while he was a contestant on Bigg Boss 6. Aamrapali had at the time worked with Santosh Shukla, who was also part of that season, and the chain of connections eventually led her to the project. She described the sequence of events as 'God's screenplay.'
With Aamrapali now inside the Bigg Boss 20 house, viewers can expect more unfiltered glimpses into the stories and relationships she has navigated over a decade in the public eye.
Point of View
She is making a broader point about societal pressure on women around marriage. That the most-watched Bhojpuri on-screen pair of the past decade has never formalised their relationship off-screen has clearly not quieted public curiosity; if anything, the house setting has amplified it. What is notable is that Nirahua's repeated nudges towards marriage are being framed by Aamrapali as a failure of empathy rather than a declaration of love — a distinction mainstream coverage has largely glossed over.
