Rhea Chakraborty has endured her fair share of personal turmoil in recent years. The passing of her alleged boyfriend and actor, Sushant Singh Rajput, in June 2020 shook her world, thrusting her into the heart of a media storm.
She was also embroiled in a legal battle with the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) over her alleged involvement in a drug case. The actress has gradually been navigating through these challenging times and appears to be making efforts to return to her normal life.

It seems she has finally taken the first step towards moving on after being spotted with Nikhil Kamath, India's youngest billionaire and co-founder of Zerodha. While the rumour mill has been abuzz for a while, it was recently given more weight when the duo was spotted arriving together in a car, accompanied by comedian Tanmay Bhat.
However, their public appearance sparked a wave of mixed reactions from netizens.
Trolls left no stone unturned to mock their relationship, saying it would end just as badly as the previous one. Some even sent prayers and good wishes for Nikhil Kamath and hoped for his safety.

Nikhil Kamath, along with his brother Nithin Kamath, stands as the co-founder of Zerodha, one of India's largest stock-broking firms. The company reported an impressive total revenue of ₹6,875 crore and a profit after tax of ₹2,907 crore in FY23. Beyond Zerodha, Nikhil Kamath's entrepreneurial endeavours extend to True Beacon, an asset management company, and Gruhas, a real estate investments and prop tech venture.
Notably, Nikhil Kamath has carved out a remarkable distinction for himself as India's youngest billionaire. In 2023, he secured a place on the Forbes billionaires list, alongside his brother, Nithin, with their combined net worth reaching a staggering ₹45,754.5 crore.

Having experienced unparalleled media frenzy and enduring incessant trolling following Sushant Singh Rajput's tragic passing in 2020, Rhea Chakraborty will probably face a lot of backlash for her new relationship - as will Nikhil Kamath.
It seems another media circus is about to begin with Rhea at its centre, yet again.
