Janhvi Kapoor took a cheeky dig at partner Shikhar Pahariya’s brother and actor Veer Pahariya’s dating history during her recent appearance on Koffee With Karan Season 9.
The actor appeared on the show alongside Varun Dhawan on Wednesday. During the rapid-fire round the host Karan Johar asked Janhvi what dating advice she would give certain actors. For Vedang Raina she said “Don’t overthink it”, for her sister Khushi Kapoor she said “She doesn’t need dating advice” and when it came to Veer Pahariya, without elaborating, the actor said, "Never take her to a concert.”
This felt like a possible dig at Veer and Tara Sutaria’s relationship. The speculation stems from the controversy surrounding the former couple's reported split, which came to the forefront following an incident at a concert.
In December 2025, Tara joined singer AP Dhillon on stage during his Mumbai concert. A video from the event showed the singer hugging the actor and giving her a peck on the cheek. The footage subsequently drew attention online, with social media users discussing Veer's reaction to the interaction.
Edited clips fuelled speculation that Veer, who was watching the performance from the audience, appeared uncomfortable. However, both Tara and Veer initially pushed back against the rumours, dismissing them as false narratives driven by paid PR. Influencer Orry also shared unedited footage that showed Veer cheering during the performance.
Tara and Veer reportedly began dating in early 2025 and made their relationship public around July that year. Reports of their separation emerged in January 2026, although neither actor formally confirmed the breakup.
