Behold! the controversial couple is making headlines again. Recently, Rishabh Pant and Urvashi Rautela grabbed the eyeballs of social media users when Rishabh posted a story directed at the Bollywood actress and model, Urvashi, in response to her interview with Bollywood Hungama where she talked about an incident with a person she addressed as “Mr. RP” (allegedly Rishabh Pant).

The pair belongs to two different professions but both are popular and their lives are often screened by the media. So, even a little hiccup can lead to a commotion. This is exactly what happened.

There had been gossip about Urvashi and Rishabh’s affair in the past, it is believed that the two started dating in 2018 as they frequently posted pictures together. The couple caught the attention of the media when rumors arose that the cricketer had blocked the actress on WhatsApp, which was later clarified that it was a mutual decision to block each other on the platform to stay detached.

Urvashi’s controversial statement in an interview

Rumors involving the duo sparked again when in a recent interview, Urvashi stated,

“I was shooting in Varanasi, and I had a show in New Delhi thereon, so I had to take a flight. In New Delhi, I was shooting a full day, and after about 10 hours of shooting, when I went back, I had to get ready, and you know that girls take a lot of time to get ready. Mr. RP came, he sat in the lobby, and waited for me, and he wanted to meet. I was so tired that I dozed off to sleep, and I didn’t realize that I had received so many calls,”

She added,

“So, when I woke up, I saw 16-17 missed calls and then I felt so bad. That, someone, was waiting for me and I didn’t go. Out of respect, because a lot of girls don’t care about making someone wait, out of that show of respect, I told him that let’s meet when you’ll come to Mumbai,”  Mumbai aaye and mile, and bahar aate hi paps and all were there. It’s very important to give respect to the other person but I feel like media kisi bhi cheez ko, joh develop hone waali ho, pura kharab kar deti hai.”

Though Urvashi didn’t mention his full name, netizens were convinced that she was talking about the Indian wicketkeeper-batter, Rishabh Pant aka Mr. RP.

Things became more clear when Rishabh posted a story reacting to her interview statement and was quick to delete it too. But netizens were swift to take screenshots and make it viral. Here is what he said,

“It’s funny how people lie in interviews just for some meagre popularity and for hitting the headlines. Sad how some people are so thirsty for fame and name. May God bless “merapichachorhoBehen #Jhutkibhilimithotihai.”

Seems like both of them are having some difficulty controlling their grudges as the outbursts on social media is not a mindful thing to do when you are a public figure.
