Bollywood actress Urvashi Rautela has added fuel to the fire amid the ongoing feud between her and the Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant. The tussle began after Rautela, in an interview, said that Pant once waited for her for hours in a hotel lobby. In response, Pant posted a cryptic story on Instagram, asking the actress to stop lying for popularity.

“It’s funny how people lie in interviews just for some meager popularity and for hitting the headlines. Sad how some people are so thirsty for fame and name. May God bless them,” wrote Pant but deleted it within minutes.

Rautela didn’t hold back, and in her latest post, she addressed Pant as “Chottu Bhaiya” and also called him cougar hunter. She also asked the cricketer to stick to bat and ball. 

“Chotu bhaiyaa should play bat ball 🏏. Main koyi munni nahi hoon badnam hone with young kiddo darling tere liyee #Rakshabandhan Mubarak ho #RPChotuBhaiyya #Cougarhunter #donttakeadvantageofasilentgirl #love #UrvashiRautela #UR1.” wrote Rautela.

Unlike Pant, Rautela hasn’t yet deleted her post. It all started with an interview she gave to Bollywood Hungama, in which she recalled how she fell asleep after a long day at shoot, and woke up to almost 20 missed calls from the cricketer. Rautela finally met Pant in Mumbai later that year, and soon emerged that the duo has been dating each other. 

“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,” told Rautela to Bollywood Hungama.

Both of them had already blocked each other on Whatsapp. Pant will now soon be seen in the upcoming Asia Cup, where India will be taking on Pakistan in the opening fixture. He has also been appointed as a brand ambassador of his native state Uttarakhand. Urvashi, meanwhile, was last seen in The Legend, and her upcoming projects are Inspector Avinash and a Hindi remake of Thiruttu Payale among others.
