Urvashi Rautela addresses person as 'RP' in recalled incident, fans claim him to be Rishabh Pant

After Virat Kohli-Anushka Sharma, Yuvraj Singh-Hazel Keech, Zaheer Khan-Sagarika Ghatge, seeing a Bollywood celebrity getting involved with an Indian cricketer is not really a big deal anymore. The connection between Miss Diva Universe Urvashi Rautela and India’s star wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant, however, managed to garner attention.

As they would frequently be photographed together at lunch or dinner or gatherings back in 2018, the two were said to be dating. However, soon after, rumours about the cricketer’s Whatsapp blockade of Urvashi Rautela, the Bollywood actress, surfaced. Although it was stated that the decision to block one another on Whatsapp was mutual, much speculation surrounded what actually happened.

Urvashi Rautela denied to name the person and addressed him as ‘RP’

The Bollywood star was overheard discussing ‘RP,’ who many fans believe to be Rishabh Pant, in a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama. She can be heard explaining an incident that, in her opinion, the media exaggerated.

“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,” Urvashi said.

As per her revelations, fans assumed that Urvashi Rautela blamed the media and paparazzi for spoiling her relationship with Rishabh Pant by exaggerating the smallest of matters. Notably, when asked about to reveal “Mr. RP’s” identity, Urvashi politely refused to so.

“So, when I woke up, I saw 16-17 missed calls, and 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. We met in Mumbai, and the paps surrounded us, and the other day it became such big news. I won’t add much to this, but it’s just that it’s very important to give respect to the other person, but I feel like media exaggerates even the smallest thing that is under development and ruins it completely,” she further narrated.
