Bollywood actress Tamannaah Bhatia has finally responded to years-old rumours linking her to former Pakistani cricketer Abdul Razzaq.
A viral photo of the two at a jewellery store had sparked bizarre claims of a secret marriage — something she now calls "one of the most ridiculous things" she's ever heard.
Viral photo sparked wild internet speculation
The rumours originated from an image that showed Tamannaah and Abdul Razzaq together at a jewellery store event. The photo, taken during a store launch both were invited to, quickly went viral online. Social media users speculated that the duo were secretly dating, and some even claimed they had tied the knot.
Tamannaah clears the air with wit and humour
Speaking on a recent talk show, the Baahubali star laughed off the rumours, joking, “According to the internet, I was married to Abdul Razzaq. Just kidding, Abdul Razzaq!”
She then directly addressed the cricketer with a smile, saying, “Excuse me sir, you have two or three children.”
Her comments made it clear that there was no romantic link between them, only a coincidental public appearance.
‘We met at jewellery store opening — That’s all’
When the show’s host asked how the two met, Tamannaah calmly explained, “We both were attending the launch of a jewellery store. That’s where the picture was taken. There’s no personal connection between us.”

She emphasized that such baseless stories can be both frustrating and comical, especially when they gain traction online.
Not the first time Tamannaah was linked in rumours
This isn't the first time the actress has been dragged into relationship rumours. Back in 2010, a photo of her with Indian cricketer Virat Kohli from a commercial shoot also led to false assumptions.
“I only met him for one day during the shoot. We never talked or met again,” she clarified.
Her real-life romance with Vijay ends quietly
In contrast to the internet-fueled speculation, Tamannaah’s confirmed relationship with actor Vijay Varma gained attention when the two were spotted together at a 2023 New Year’s party.
However, the couple reportedly parted ways earlier this year. Neither made an official statement, but sources from Indian media indicated that they had quietly ended their relationship.
