As the IPL 2026 goes on, the cricket world has been struck with another dating rumour that is garnering a lot of attention across social media. The spotlight is currently on Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB)’s star batter Devdutt Padikkal and Big Boss fame actress and model Shehnaz Gill. There have been uncountable posts flowing on social media, alleging that both the cricketer and the actress are having a rumoured relationship. This mind-boggling news has triggered an opinion war on social media. 

Shehnaaz Gill And Devdutt Padikkal Rumours: How it Started?

It all started when Shehnaaz posted an Instagram reel and wrote a caption cheering for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Raipur, which immediately sparked a lot of speculation among the franchise’s fans about whether she was actually supporting them or just promoting her appearance. It soon took off after some online users made a video linking the actress with Devdutt Padikkal, and the subsequent posting and sharing of it on popular social networks like Reddit and X started a viral fake story that the celebrities were dating. Shehnaaz’s enthusiasm and cheering for the IPL team RCB have always been there, but her massive energy this time during the IPL 2026 season set off a whole whirlwind of dating speculations and rumours floating around the internet.

Analyzing The Social Media Evidence And Instagram Interactions

An in-depth look at the digital lives of both celebrities uncovers not a single piece of concrete evidence to suggest the dating claims. Digital detectives who meticulously sifted through their social media lives verified that there was absolutely no cross-following on their Instagram accounts between Devdutt Padikkal and Shehnaaz Gill.

In the contemporary celebrity gossip frenzy, the total absence of any digital link or appearance is often taken as a sign that the story is unfounded and fabricated. And, there have been no proven sightings of the pair in anything other than the stadium climes, nor have there been any formal word from their management teams on the matter.
