Urvashi Rautela breaks silence on temple remark after online outrage; team issues clarification

In what appears to be an try and clear the air, Urvashi and her team have now issued an announcement urging people to hearken to the total context of her comments before jumping to conclusions. The backlash, they suggest, stems from a misunderstanding of her words.

Addressing the controversy directly, Urvashi said, “There’s a temple in my name in Uttarakhand, not Urvashi Rautela’s temple. Now people don’t even hearken to things properly; just hearing ‘Urvashi’ or ‘temple,’ they assumed that folks worship Urvashi Rautela. Take heed to this video properly after which speak. It is crucial that before making baseless allegations or derogatory comments against any individual, the facts are thoroughly verified. Everyone in society should treat one another with respect and understanding so that everybody’s rights will be protected.”

The clarification suggests that the actress was referring to the Urvashi Mandir, a site related to Hindu mythology and never a shrine dedicated to herself. Nevertheless, the phrasing in the unique interview — where she appeared to link the temple along with her own identity — triggered a wave of confusion and mock.

Within the interview, the actress claimed, “There’s a temple in my name in Uttarakhand. If one visits Badrinath, there may be a ‘Urvashi temple’ right next to it.” When asked if people go there to hunt blessings, she replied, “Ab mandir hai toh woh hi toh karenge (It’s a temple, they may do this only).”

While her latest statement calls for respect and fact-checking, it also appears to function a form of injury control after the general public response took a negative turn. Whether the clarification will help ease the criticism stays to be seen, but for now, the incident stands as one other reminder of how easily offhand remarks can spiral within the digital age.
