Television’s beloved duo Karan Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash, better known as “TejRan,” just got dragged into a wild online frenzy and it had absolutely nothing to do with their dazzling PDA. A seemingly “photo verified” Bumble profile featuring Karan’s face, age (40) and casual look in a beige T-shirt and jeans exploded across social media, leaving fans gaping in shock at the unexpected swipe-right moment.
But before anyone got their relationship jeopardy alarms ringing, Karan came forward with a laughter-filled clapback. In an exclusive response, he dismissed the mystery profile as nothing more than recycled trolling fodder. “It’s not even an account, it’s just a topic for haters,” he said, revealing that the exact same screenshot has resurfaced every few months for the past several years.
Adding a humorous twist, Karan pointed out a glaring detail. The fake app claimed he was located in Kalyan, even though he was actually with family in Jalandhar when it went viral. “I don’t even know where Kalyan is properly,” he joked.
Even more delightful was Tejasswi’s reaction. She joined Karan in laughing the rumor off, making the whole drama feel less like scandal and more like an inside joke. “Ya ya, this happens all the time!” he shared.
Fans, meanwhile, rallied around them online. Social chatter ranged from “#TejRan forever” to cheeky comments like “Who made this? Get a new hobby.” A few even noted that dating apps’ verification systems aren’t bulletproof, and sometimes celebrities become accidental victims of algorithm loopholes.
This wasn’t just another rumor, it was a vivid reminder of how celebrities are never truly off-screen, especially in the age of screenshots and trolls. But if you’re going to go viral, it seems Karan Kundrra knows how to do it with a laugh, while proving he is firmly off the dating grid.
