Rana Daggubati, even on the eve of the launch of his next B-town film Baby, remains in the news for his link-up with actress Trisha and their alleged break-up before the latter’s engagement to businessman Varun Manian.

What does Rana have to say about his so-called heartbreak? “It doesn’t really matter, what I think, does it? It mattered the first time the news about this fictional link-up cropped from nowhere..... and hence I had even spoken to one of the newspapers about the same, explained at length about how the news was not true.

However, when I read it the next day, there was just this one line about me denying the news. I could only think of the time I wasted in explaining.”

He adds, “It might affect me if there was any truth to it, however Trisha is a very good friend of mine and I recently met both her and Varun in  Goa. We all partied together.”

So what exactly is his relationship status? The actor says he is single, but not ready to mingle. “A relationship requires me to be at a certain place, at a certain time.

There is a lot of time and effort one needs to put in to get it going,  which is something that I cannot afford to do right now. Who would want to be with a guy who was in Hyderabad yesterday, Mumbai today and Delhi tomorrow?” he asks.
