Urvashi Rautela HIT BACK Diet Sabya Over Cannes Viral Video, Says, 'Paid Trolls Can't Dim My Light
At the 78th Cannes Film Festival, actress Urvashi Rautela found herself at the center of controversy after a video surfaced showing her posing on a hotel stairway in a golden gown, seemingly obstructing guests attempting to pass. The clip, shared by fashion watchdog Diet Sabya, drew criticism from social media users who accused her of lacking basic courtesy. Comments ranged from calling her behavior "embarrassing" to questioning her representation of India on an international platform.
In response, Urvashi took to Instagram to address the allegations, asserting that her team had secured full permission for the photoshoot on the designated staircase. She labeled Diet Sabya as a "cheap imitation of Diet Prada," accusing the account of launching "venomous attacks against hardworking outsiders who dare to shine." Emphasizing her dedication and international acclaim, she stated, "My charisma, forged through relentless dedication and international acclaim, remains untouchable. No one—not Diet Sabya, nor their petty lies—can dim the light of Urvashi Rautela." She concluded her statement with the hashtag #paidtrolls, suggesting that the criticisms were financially motivated.
This incident adds to a series of fashion-related controversies for Urvashi at Cannes 2025. Earlier, she faced backlash for her red carpet appearance featuring a multicolored gown paired with a tiara and a ₹4.68 lakh crystal parrot-shaped clutch, which many deemed over-the-top. Additionally, she suffered a wardrobe malfunction when a tear in her black gown was visible during a red carpet walk, leading to further online mockery. Despite these challenges, Urvashi continues to make headlines, asserting her presence on the global stage.
