  • Karina Kubiliute denies dating Kartik Aaryan after viral Goa vacation photos
  • She updated her Instagram bio to clarify she does not know Kartik
  • No official statement from Kartik Aaryan or his team on the rumours

Karina Kubiliute, the woman recently linked to Bollywood star Kartik Aaryan amid viral Goa vacation photos, has finally spoken out to address the romantic speculation swirling online. After days of intense chatter on social platforms, including Reddit and X (formerly Twitter), Karina took to social media indirectly to deny the dating rumours, making it clear that she is not in a relationship with the actor.

The "mystery girl" has now updated her Instagram bio to a blunt message: “I don’t know Kartik!”

The online uproar began after internet sleuths noticed striking similarities between a casual beach photo shared by Kartik from his Goa trip and a separate post by Karina that appeared to be taken at the same location. Fans analysed details like matching backgrounds, beach beds, towels and sea angles, which sparked allegations that the two were holidaying together. At one point, screenshots suggesting that Kartik was following Karina on Instagram — and later unfollowed her — added fuel to the rumours and further amplified speculation.

Karina has now offered her own response, by reacting to a comment on one of the viral posts. A screenshot circulating online shows her replying to a derogatory remark with the blunt message: “I’m not his gffff!!! Lois bro STFU.” The shorthand clearly stood for “I’m not his girlfriend,” providing one of the first public reactions from Karina herself, and essentially putting a firm end to the dating claims from her side.

Despite her denial, social media remains abuzz with varied opinions, and some users continue to debate whether the similar photos are a coincidence or something more. At the same time, it’s important to note that there has been no official confirmation from Kartik Aaryan or his representatives regarding a romantic link with Karina.
