Neha Dhupia is lending support to beau Ritwik Bhattacharya at the ongoing PSA Squash Masters 2009 tournament in the city. Over the weekend, the actress attended the event along with the squash champ.
Though the couple has often been spotted at social events together, Neha is now stepping out with him even in his professional endeavours. She is extremely fond of the game (for reasons obvious!) and now wants to do her bit to promote the sport. A while back she also learnt to play the game.
Says Neha, "I'm doing whatever I can to bring more recognition to the sport. The tournament has the biggest names of squash participating. Cricket dominates everything. I am a big fan of cricket too but it is high time the rest of the games also get their due."
She will be accompanying Ritwik to the tournament matches at Bombay Gymkhana till December 10.
Though she is not too keen on talking about Ritwik and their relationship, she adds, "All that I can say is that I am supporting him in his endeavours -- the sporting ones!"
Meanwhile she is also looking forward to her next release Saurabh Shukla's Raat Gayi Baat Gayi this month-end.
"The movie is about all those things that one does not like to talk about. It takes on one-night stands to drunken encounters.
Doing this film was a comfort zone as it was with friends like Rajat Kapoor and Vinay Pathak. The film has bagged an award at the recent South Asian Inter-national Film Festival, 2009.
Last week, she was in Dubai performing at the Dreamz 2009 concert. "I did a jig with Prabhudeva and Salman -- that was the high point of the trip for me!'
