Dhawan captioned the reel with his trademark flair: “Gabbar is back.”
The video has surfaced amid growing speculation about Dhawan’s relationship with Shine, especially after their joint appearance at a recent media conclave and the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. At the event, Dhawan admitted he was dating again, saying, “Yes, I have moved on… it was a learning curve for me.” When asked if he was ready to love again, he smiled, “I am always in love!”
Sophie Shine, an Irish product consultant with a background in Marketing and Management from Limerick Institute of Technology, currently serves as Second Vice President at Northern Trust Corporation in Abu Dhabi.
With the reel going viral, fans can’t seem to get enough of Dhawan’s new chapter.
