As they both were often photographed together at lunch or dinner or gatherings in 2018, the two were rumored to be dating. However, soon after, rumors of Rishabh Pant blocking Urvashi Rautela on WhatsApp also surfaced.
The Bollywood star was now heard discussing ‘RP’ which many fans believe to be Rishabh Pant in a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama. “I was shooting in Varanasi, and then I had a show in New Delhi, so I had to take a flight. I was shooting all day in New Delhi and when I went back after shooting for about 10 hours I had to get ready, and you know girls take a lot of time to get ready. Mr. RP came, sat in the lobby, and waited for me, and wanted to meet. I was so tired that I fell asleep and I didn’t realize that I had received so many calls.”

According to his revelations, fans assumed that Urvashi Rautela Blaming the media and the paparazzi for spoiling her relationship with Rishabh Pant by exaggerating small things. Notably, when asked about revealing “Mr. RP’s identity, Urvashi politely refused to do 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 to wait for anyone , Out of a show of that respect, I told him see you when you come to Mumbai. We met in Mumbai, and Pap surrounded us, and the other day it became such big news. I won’t add much to that, but It’s just that giving respect to the other person is so important, but I feel like the media exaggerate even the smallest thing under development and completely ruin it,” she adds .
The interview was followed by a discussion of a possible Instagram story posted by Rishabh Pant on social media, which was later deleted. View Instagram story here…
