Tamannaah Bhatia has recently addressed long-standing rumors linking her to cricketers Virat Kohli and Abdul Razzaq. In an interview with The Lallantop, the actress clarified the nature of her relationship with both cricketers, dismissing any speculation of a romantic involvement.
Regarding Virat Kohli, Tamannaah stated that she only met him once during a commercial shoot in the early 2010s. A photo from that shoot went viral, leading many to believe they were a couple. Tamannaah, however, has set the record straight, saying, "I feel so bad because I literally met him for only one day. I have never met Virat after the shoot. Na maine unse baat ki, na unse mili hoon". She emphasized that the interaction was purely professional and that there was no further contact between them.
Addressing the rumors about Abdul Razzaq, Tamannaah laughed them off, stating, "Mazaak mazaak mein Abdul Razzaq! The Internet is a fun place". The rumors began after a picture of Tamannaah and Razzaq at a jewelry store surfaced online, leading to claims that they were secretly married. Tamannaah clarified that they were both present at the inauguration of the jewelry shop and that the internet took their meeting out of context. With folded hands, she humorously apologized to Razzaq, saying, "I'm sorry sir. You have children. I don't know about your life but it was so embarrassing".
Tamannaah also expressed how awkward it feels when the media links her to people she has no connection with. She acknowledged that such rumors are unavoidable and that she has come to accept that she cannot control what people think.
