Actress Payal Rohatgi and wrestler Sangram Singh, who have been dating each other for the past five months, are planning to take their relationship to another level, or so it seems, with the way things are happening with respect to both the stars and their families.

A month back, Sangram met Payal’s family members and now Payal is coming to Delhi to meet Sangram’s sister. Confirming the news Sangram said, “I stayed at Payal’s place when we came back after completing our new reality show.” Is he okay with the kind of image Payal has in the industry, and with her numerous link-ups, especially the one with Rahul Mahajan? “Who is Rahul Mahajan? I don’t know him and I’ve even told Payal that I’m not interested in her past, as long as we are happy in the present,” said the wrestler.

Payal was a little diplomatic. She said, “Yes, I am coming to Delhi on October 4, but I am coming to meet my dad. Sangram’s parents stay in Rohtak, so I’ll be meeting only his sister who stays in Delhi.” On her relationship with Sangram, she said, “Sparks flew while we were shooting for the reality show and we started dating soon after. He is a very down to earth person and his simplicity is what attracted me.” So are they both looking towards taking the next step and settling down? “Well, in the long run we might, but right now, we both want to concentrate on our career, for at least two years,” she said.
