In the midst of the uproar, Rishabh Pant on Sunday uploaded a mysterious Instagram story in response to Urvashi Rautela’s comment that “Chotu bhaiyaa should play bat ball,” which was in turn a response to Pant’s earlier-deleted post from Thursday night.
The current social media feud between Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant and Bollywood actress Urvashi Rautela has taken a new turn. In the midst of the controversy, the cricketer published a mysterious Instagram story on Sunday in reaction to Urvashi’s remark that “Chotu bhaiyaa should play bat ball,” which was made in response to Pant’s earlier-deleted post on the social media platform on Thursday evening.

In a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama, the actress said that a man named “Mr RP” had waited in the lobby to see her during an event in New Delhi. This is when the scandal started. However, the meeting was cancelled because Urvashi, who was exhausted after the event, fell asleep before realising there were “16-17 missed calls.”
After the discovery, Pant responded to the popular interview with an Instagram post, which he quickly deleted. And thus a debate started, to which Urvashi responded, leading to Pant’s Sunday sharing of a mysterious Instagram story.

“Don’t stress over what you cannot control,” the post read.
There were rumours of a relationship between Rishabh Pant, a cricket player for Team India, and Urvashi in 2018. According to reports, the couple broke up, and the sportsman reportedly blocked the actress on WhatsApp.
A day after the interview, which is now gone, Pant replied to her statement with a sarcastic Instagram story, which he quickly deleted. But as soon as they did, fans grabbed a screenshot of the same and posted it on social media, where it instantly went viral. In a now-deleted Instagram story, Pant appears to have made fun of the actress for making up things in interviews only to get publicity.

But the drama didn’t end there. Pant then deleted his Instagram, but not before causing harm. In retaliation, Rautela called the Indian cricketer a “cougar hunter” in an Instagram post that is still visible on her social media profile.

It won’t be surprising to see yet another retaliation from Rautela if Rishabh Pant continues to criticise the actress because there doesn’t seem to be a conclusion to this internet fight at the moment.
