London, Sep 8, (ANI): Susan Sarandon's table-tennis club partner is okay with rumours that he's romantically involved with the actress as it seems to be boosting their business.

Sarandon co-owns New York table tennis bar Spin with 32-year-old Jonathan Bricklin, who has been listed as her toyboy lover following the actress' 2009 split from long-time partner Tim Robbins.

And although her representative has denied the rumours, speculation about the two is still rife.

Sarandon was spotted with Bricklin on a trip to Peru and appeared for the New York screening of new documentary 'Exit Through the Gift Shop' in April 2010.

"No. No, no. But we spend a lot of time together - a lot of time.?" The Daily Express quoted Bricklin as telling New York magazine.

He added, "I don't read the papers that often, but I walk by and I kind of scoff at whoever's there. So when the equivalent happened to me, I was just horrified. And then I got over it, a day later.

"Business was notably better from the first article on. I mean, I'm happy as s**t if that sells things." (ANI)
