Model and actor Samreen Kaur has responded to social media users questioning her relationship with Indian cricketer Arshdeep Singh, with some accusing her of dating him for fame and money.
In a lengthy Instagram Story, Kaur defended her independence and said she had built her own career long before the relationship became public.

Samreen Kaur says she does not need to prove her love
Kaur said she has been working since she was 17 and has taken care of herself financially and professionally. She also revealed that she has traveled to more than 20 countries and can afford her own lifestyle.
“The more I see the world, the more I realise how hypocritical people on social media can be. If you hide your man, you're apparently not proud of him enough. If you love him loudly, you're doing it for fame,” she wrote.
She added that she was grateful to have built a happy life with or without a relationship.
Kaur also spoke warmly about Arshdeep, saying she felt fortunate to have found someone who made her happy.
“And I am incredibly lucky to have found someone I genuinely wish I'd met earlier. Someone who completes me in ways I don't owe anyone an explanation for,” she added.
The actor said she would continue sharing pictures and updates about herself and her relationship because it was her personal choice. She also warned that she and her team would block people leaving hateful comments on her profile.
