Zoya Hussain Finally Addresses Link-Up Rumours with Jim Sarbh: ‘We’re Very Close’ |

In the world of entertainment, where rumors and speculation often run rampant, actor Zoya Hussain has finally opened up about her much-discussed relationship with fellow actor Jim Sarbh. The two first captivated audiences with their chemistry in Prateek Kuhad’s 2018 music video ‘Cold/Mess,’ and continued to spark interest with their subsequent collaboration in ‘Into the Night’ a year later.Since then, their close friendship has been a topic of much intrigue, with rumors suggesting they began dating in early 2022.
In an interview with News18 Showsha, Zoya candidly addressed these rumors. “It’s personal. It’s my personal life. I’m not aware of what’s written about me, so I don’t know what to say,” she stated, adding with a chuckle, “It’s true that Jim and I are very good friends. It’s also true that we’re very close.” When pressed to reveal something she’s discovered about Jim, she smiled and shared, “He’s a very good cook.”

Despite the ongoing speculation, Zoya and Jim have never worked on a film together. However, earlier this year, they co-created a series called ‘Crew Cut,’ which explores the lives of people working behind the scenes on film sets. This project is prominently featured on Zoya’s Instagram, which notably lacks personal content—a rare stance in an industry where social media presence is often deemed crucial for visibility and career advancement.
In the same conversation, Zoya revealed her approach to social media, which is refreshingly unconventional. She mentioned that everyone talks to her about enhancing her social media game, including her family. However, she admitted she is not tech-savvy or social media-savvy, and is taking baby steps.
Her reluctance to share personal updates on platforms like Instagram is something she acknowledges as unusual. “Keeping my Instagram updated with the latest pictures doesn’t come naturally to me,” she confessed. “I have a bit of an aversion to it. I think I don’t have that natural wiring to just put out a selfie on Instagram. I don’t even click selfies. It’s wonderful for people who are savvy and good with it because it really makes a difference to them.”

Zoya, who recently featured in Manoj Bajpayee’s film ‘Bhaiyya Ji,’ distinguishes herself in an age where social media frequently blurs the boundaries between personal and professional lives. Her dedication to preserving her privacy and concentrating on her artistic work instead of her online persona is both commendable and uncommon.
As she continues to navigate her career, it is clear that Zoya Hussain values genuine connections and authenticity over the fleeting validation of social media metrics. Whether her relationship with Jim Sarbh evolves into something more or remains a deep friendship, her approach to handling the public’s curiosity with grace and humor is commendable. This authenticity might just be what sets her apart in the ever-evolving landscape of the entertainment industry.
