Urvashi Rautela calls Rishabh Pant ‘chotu bhaiya’ after he took a jibe at her for talking about him in an interview; the cricketer wrote, ‘mera picha chodo behen’
The controversy between cricketer Rishabh Pant and actor Urvashi Rautela won't go away. For a very long time, there have been rumors that the two formerly dated, but neither of them has ever responded in any meaningful way. Following a contentious remark Urvashi made in a recent interview, Rishabh Pant used Instagram to subtly criticize the actress.
Urvashi revealed an incident in an interview saying, “I was shooting in New Delhi and I arrived at night. Quickly I had to get ready because actresses need more time to get ready. So, Mr. RP came to the hotel lobby and wanted to meet. Ten hours passed and I fell asleep. I couldn’t attend any calls and when I woke up I saw 16-17 missed calls and I felt so bad that someone was waiting for me and I couldn’t meet them. I told him we’ll meet when you come to Mumbai. We met in Mumbai but a huge drama happened with the paps and all.” Urvashi said simply, "I won't name him," when asked who RP is. However, a lot of people on social media claimed that the actor was referring to Rishabh Pant, the Indian team's current wicketkeeper.
Reacting to this, Rishabh shared a remark on Instagram Stories on Thursday, which many people felt was a message for Urvashi. The cricketer did not, however, mention the actor by name. The note read, “It’s funny how people lie in interviews just for some meager popularity and for hitting the headlines. Sad how some people are thirsty for fame and name. May God bless them. #MeraPichaChhoroBehen #JhuthKiBhiLimitHotiHai”
Urvashi then responded to his statement on Instagram and wrote, “Chotu Bhaiyaa should play bat ball. Main koyi Munni nahi hoon badnaam hone with young kiddo darlings tere liye liye Rakshabandhan Mubarak ho #RPChtobhaiyaa #Cougarhunter #Donttakeadvantageofsilentgirl.”
The two have been at the center of debate previously. A few years ago, the cricketer not only blocked Urvashi but also shared images of his girlfriend on social media after media reports said she had hinted at dating Rishabh. Urvashi and Rishabh were frequently photographed together in 2018—sometimes after dinners or events.
