Actor Jason Shah is currently in the limelight due to his role as Alastair Cartwright in the Netflix series Heeramandi. His performance has reignited curiosity about both his career and personal life.

During a chat with ETimes, Jason Shah confirmed the breakup but declined to share any further details about it or his current relationship status, "I have had a big spiritual change in my life since then (his last breakup), which has made me wiser." The only thing he will say about the relationship is this - "It was rushed. I didn't really think about it. The other person didn't really understand me and I felt they were trying to make me fit in their box. And that is not going to happen, right?"

Jason Shah added: "A huge problem with relationships today, and one of the main reasons for breakups and divorces is that people don't really listen to the other. They're only trying to put forth what they feel. That's the sad part. Only when you listen to what a person says, especially earlier on, will your relationship last longer."

In an interview with The Times Of India in April 2021, Jason Shah acknowledged his relationship with Anusha Dandekar and mentioned feeling a "cosmic connection" with her, "I have known Anusha and her sister Shibani [Dandekar] for a very long time now, but I got to know Anusha closely just a few weeks back. She is gorgeous, extremely kind and a free spirit who believes in living life in the moment. I love that about her. We have been dating for a while and life has been beautiful with her."
