Watch: Disha Patani, Talwiinder Walk Hand-In-Hand At Lollapalooza 2026 Amid Dating Rumours
Disha Patani sparked dating buzz as she was spotted hand in hand with Punjabi singer Talwiinder at Lollapalooza India, seemingly confirming romance rumours.
The Bollywood romance rumour mill is working overtime! After weeks of whispers, actress Disha Patani and Punjabi sensation Talwiinder seem to have confirmed what fans have been suspecting: they are officially a duo. The pair turned heads this past Sunday at Lollapalooza India in Mumbai, where they were seen walking through the crowd hand-in-hand. After the festival – where Talwiinder even took to the stage for a surprise performance alongside international star Kehlani – the two were spotted leaving the venue in the same car with friends.
The speculation actually started earlier this month at the star-studded wedding of Nupur Sanon (sister of Kriti Sanon) and musician Stebin Ben in Udaipur.
While the two kept things low-key, a viral video from the festivities captured a candid moment where Talwiinder’s face – usually hidden behind his trademark paint – was clearly visible. The duo didn't stop there; they returned to Mumbai together (accompanied by Disha’s close friend Mouni Roy) and were later seen at Nupur’s wedding reception, further fuelling the more than friends narrative.
If you haven't had his tracks on repeat yet, here is the lowdown on the man capturing the headlines:
Background: Born Talwinder Singh Sidhu in November 1997 (Tarn Taran, Punjab) and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area.
The Sound: A pioneer in the independent Punjabi scene, he blends traditional roots with hip-hop, R&B, trap, and synth-pop.
Major Hits: You likely know him from tracks like ‘Dhundhala’, ‘Gaah’, ‘Nasha’, ‘Khayaal’, and the hit collaboration ‘Wishes’ with Pakistani artist Hasan Raheem.
The Resume: He has opened for global icons like Dua Lipa and G-Eazy, cementing his status as a major live performer.
The Masked Philosophy: Talwiinder is famous for performing with face paint or a mask. He previously explained to The Indian Express that it’s about shifting focus to the art: “It was never about hiding, it was about shifting the focus. Music should be felt before it’s seen. The paint strips away the ego, the distractions. It’s a reminder that the art is bigger than the artiste.”
While Disha Patani was famously linked to Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff for years, the two always maintained they were just close friends. Now, it seems she’s moving into a new chapter both personally and professionally.
On the work front, Disha Patani will be next seen in a dance number in Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri’s ‘O Romeo’. She will also feature in ‘Welcome To The Jungle’, an ensemble comedy starring Akshay Kumar, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Anil Kapoor, among many others.
