The crossovers with alleged affairs, has always been an attractive topic among the fans and the media outlets.

The current BCCI president and South film actress turned politician Nagma were in a rumoured relationship during the early 2000s and they were seen together in public places often. Reports suggests that there were even rumours that the two visited a temple and had performed a puja meant for married couples. While there were no say from Ganguly’s side regarding the rumours, the “Baassha” actress opened about her relationship with Ganguly in the year 2003.

“”Whatever one says, nobody has denied anything. As long as there is no denials of each other’s existence in each other’s life, any person can say anything they want” said Nagma in the interview. The report further stated that their relationship affected Dada’s performance on field , and Nagma was called out for creating a downward graph on his career. This resulted the break up, sources added.

“There was a career at stake, besides other things, so one had to part. One had to weight a lot of things, rather than be on an ego trip and insist on being together. A smaller interest had to be sacrificed for bigger interests” Nagma said in another interview.

Now, on Wednesday, the former actress wished ganguly on his 48th birthday. “Happy birthday” she wrote by tagging the official twitter account of Dada.

Happy birthday @SGanguly99 .
