Jackky Bhagnani has found himself at the centre of social media buzz after a screenshot claiming to show his profile on a dating app went viral online. The image surfaced months after the actor-producer jokingly referred to his marriage with Rakul Preet Singh as a “situationship.”
Jackky Bhagnani On Dating App?
A Reddit user recently posted a screengrab from a YouTuber’s video alleging Jackky is on Raya, an invite-only dating app. The screenshot shows a profile named ‘Jackky’ with ‘Actor/Producer’ in the bio, and the location listed as London, United Kingdom. However, the authenticity of the profile has not been independently verified — it’s unclear whether the account is real, inactive or created by someone else.
Raya is an invite-only platform popular among celebrities and high-profile professionals for dating, networking and making friends. Unlike mainstream apps, prospective users apply and undergo vetting before approval, making it one of the most exclusive platforms.
Jackky Bhagnani’s “Situationship” Remark
The timing raised eyebrows, coming months after Jackky’s remark about his marriage went viral:
“Rakul and I are married, but we are like in a situationship, which is, of course, we are exclusive to each other because that’s why we are married. But the most important thing is that I can talk to her about anything,”
he said in a chat with Zingabad.
Reacting to the online pushback, Rakul wrote on her Instagram Story: “We had a great laugh today about how one line from an hour-long conversation can suddenly become the headline. Funny… until it’s not. Context matters. Nuance matters. Conversations deserve better than being reduced to clickbait. Maybe it’s time platforms take a little more responsibility for the narratives they create.”
Jackky Bhagnani and Rakul Preet Singh found love during the lockdown and married in Goa in 2024.
Editorial notes: Corroborating outlets (India Today, Mid-Day) add two details: the bio reportedly misspells “producer” as “Peoducer” — a typo users cited in questioning authenticity — and the screenshots appear to be old, resurfacing from a YouTuber’s video rather than new activity. Neither outlet confirmed the profile is genuine or currently active.
