Urvashi Rautela’s cryptic tweet after Rishabh Pant’s car accident has users “confused”
New Delhi: Actress Urvashi Rautela on Friday evening left fans confused with a cryptic tweet after cricketer Rishabh Pant suffered a road accident earlier in the day.
In the tweet, Urvashi wrote, “I pray for you & your family’s wellbeing.”
While the tweet left many users sarcastically confused, others appreciated the actor for posting the message despite their personal differences.
Users took a sarcastic dig at the actress and asked if the tweet was for PM Modi whose mother passed away or for former Brazilian footballer Pele who passed away due to cancer – both on Friday.
Earlier, Urvashi had also posted a cryptic Instagram post with her glamorous picture. The picture was captioned “Praying”.
Rumors about the relationship between Urvashi and the cricketer emerged in 2018 after they were spotted together at restaurants, parties, and other events. But in 2019, Pant dismissed rumors and announced his relationship with his girlfriend Isha Negi. He even shared a picture with Isha on Instagram.
Since then, they have been taking oblique potshots at each other. A few months ago, Urvashi shared a post about some "Chhotu bhaiya" along with hashtags #RPChotuBhaiyya and #DontTakeAdvantageOfASilentGirl that made the internet abuzz.
The post was in response to an Instagram Story shared and deleted by Pant he said "some people lie in interviews just for some meager popularity". The Story was in response to an interview Urvashi gave in August in which she claimed that one "RP" waited for her in a hotel lobby and called her several times.
I pray for you & your family’s wellbeing.

It’s a lie that he said ‘well bowled’ to me: Siraj counters Head's comments
Adelaide, Dec 8: Facing severe criticism for his verbal send-off, Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj has refuted Travis Head's claim of saying "well bowled" during the Pink-ball Test alleging him of gross misrepresentation of what transpired after the southpaw's dismissal.
Siraj's fiery celebration after dismissing Head, who scored a counterattacking 140, sparked heated exchanges, adding drama to the second day of the Pink-ball Test here on Saturday.
Expressing disappointment at Siraj's conduct, Head claimed that he said "well bowled" after being castled by a low toss, a statement the Indian dismissed as a lie.
“It was a good battle. I loved bowling to him. He has batted really well for his 140,” Siraj told Harbhajan Singh during an interaction on Star Sports.
“When you get hit for a six on your good ball, it kind of gets annoying. It ignites your passion. When I got him out, I celebrated but he abused me,” said Siraj.
“It’s a lie that he said ‘well bowled’ to me."
The incident unfolded after Siraj, having dropped the local hero on 76 earlier in the day, conceded a six to him. The Hyderabadi responded immediately, castling Head with a low full toss and celebrating animatedly, while instructing him to walk back.
Head reacted with a few verbal volleys of his own before leaving for the dressing room. Siraj was subsequently booed by the record 50,000-plus Adelaide crowd. The pacer was later seen discussing the crowd's reaction with the umpires.
"You can see what he actually said on TV. Initially, I only celebrated but he was the one who started the conversation. In the press conference, he lied that he said ‘well bowled.’ You can go and check the highlights again," Siraj said.
"We don’t disrespect anyone. I respect every cricketer. Cricket is a gentleman’s game but the way acted after getting out was uncalled for.”
Head's brilliant innings of 141-ball 140 was the backbone of Australia's total of 337 in 87.3 overs, even as wickets fell around him. He played a pivotal role in helping Australia secure a commanding 157-run first-innings lead.
"Well, I said 'well bowled', but he thought otherwise when he pointed me to the sheds. Yeah, I was slightly disappointed with the way that transpired with a couple of the past innings," Head told 'Fox Cricket' on Saturday.
"But, yeah, it is what it is if they want to react like that. And that's how they want to represent themselves and so be it."
Former India off-spinner Harbhajan, who was involved in the infamous Monkey-gate scandal in Australia in 2008, backed Siraj.
"You did right. He (Travis Head) never said ‘well bowled.’ Australians don’t say this to anyone. I have had my fair shares of battles with them in the past. You should be proud of yourself. You were excellent,” said Harbhajan.
