Bollywood actress Tamannaah Bhatia has spoken up about her affaird with a Pakistani cricketer. She responded to rumours linking her to former Pakistani cricketer Abdul Razzaq.
The bizarre claims stemmed from a viral photograph taken years ago, showing the two attending a jewellery store launch event. Despite the public nature of the gathering, the photo triggered wild online rumours, with some even alleging a secret wedding between the actress and the cricketer.
“Just Kidding, Abdul Razzaq!”
Appearing on a recent talk show, the Baahubali star laughed off the gossip, saying, “According to the internet, I was married to Abdul Razzaq. Just kidding, Abdul Razzaq!” She followed it up with a cheeky comment directed at him: “Excuse me sir, you have two or three children.”
Her lighthearted response made it clear that the rumours held no truth and that their only interaction had been at a public event.
“We Just Attended the Same Store Launch”
When asked how the two came to be photographed together, Tamannaah explained simply, “We were both invited to a jewellery store launch. That’s where the picture was taken—nothing more, nothing less.”
She also expressed how absurd and frustrating such baseless narratives can be, especially when they snowball into viral stories without any foundation.
Not New to Rumour Mills
Tamannaah is no stranger to being the subject of unfounded relationship rumours. In 2010, a photo of her with Indian cricketer Virat Kohli from a commercial shoot similarly sparked false dating speculation. “I only met him once during the shoot. We never spoke or met again,” she clarified.
Real-Life Relationship Ends Quietly
While social media has often paired her with people she’s barely met, Tamannaah’s real-life romance with actor Vijay Varma had briefly made headlines after the two were seen celebrating New Year’s together in 2023.
However, according to Indian media sources, the couple quietly parted ways earlier this year, with neither party issuing a public statement.
In her own words and with a dose of wit, Tamannaah Bhatia has once again reminded fans and followers not to believe everything they see—or read—on the internet.
