Kunal is Ameesha's Close buddy

The businessman has been stepping out with her at events and bashes. Shutterbugs have been merrily clicking the duo. And B-Town's razor-sharp tongues have begun wagging. Buzz is that he is producing a film for her.

The actress has been spotted with him at Shilpa Shetty's bash. He even accompanied her to Dubai for the New Year celebrations.

They were together at Imran Khan's wedding reception too. Initially many mistook him to be her ex flame Kanav Puri as there is some resemblance.

Interestingly, Kunal is married! Sometimes his wife Shaalu even accompanies him and Ameesha to parties.
Says a source, "She has known Kunal for a long time.

But when she was linked with filmmaker Vikram Bhatt and later with London-based Kanav, he did not accompany her to bashes. He remained a close friend. But after her break-ups, she has found a shoulder to lean on.

He has always been around for her and has been a source of immense support especially when she was estranged from her parents (Asha and Amit Patel) and brother (Ashmit Patel). Even after her patch-up with her folks, she is still close to Kunal."

Adds the source, "Years ago, Kunal too had harboured acting aspirations and there was buzz that he was to be launched in a movie. He has been part of Ameesha's circle for almost a decade.

Now that she has had her share of heartbreaks, she has turned to him. It appears that he is besotted with her."

Ameesha however says, "Let the speculation continue. I can't be bothered to clarify being seen by my best friend of nine years because people keep mistaking him for Kanav Puri."
