Tamannaah Bhatia Sets the Record Straight on Rumored Romances with Virat Kohli & Abdul Razzaq
The actress clarifies in a candid Lallantop interview that her ties with the cricketers were limited to brief, professional encounters — any speculation beyond that she calls “embarrassing.”

Tamannaah Bhatia, one of Indian cinema’s most versatile and widely recognized stars, is known for her work across multiple languages and platforms. But alongside her professional success, she’s also had to face persistent rumors about her personal life—especially alleged romantic links with cricketers Virat Kohli and Abdul Razzaq. In a recent interview with The Lallantop, the actress finally addressed these speculations head-on.
The Virat Kohli Rumor: “I Met Him Just Once”
Tamannaah laughed off the long-standing buzz that she dated Indian cricket superstar Virat Kohli, revealing that they met only once during an ad shoot. “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 hun,” she clarified.
The rumor stemmed from a single viral photo of the two together from a commercial in the 2010s. Fans took the image as evidence of a relationship, despite there being no interaction between them beyond that brief shoot.
The Abdul Razzaq Story: “According to the Internet, We Were Married”
Another bizarre rumor linked Tamannaah to former Pakistani cricketer Abdul Razzaq. Years ago, a photo of them together in a jewellery store spread like wildfire online, sparking speculation that they were secretly married.
Responding with humor, Tamannaah said, “Mazaak mazaak mein Abdul Razzaq! The Internet is a fun place. According to the Internet, I was briefly married to Abdul Razzaq.” She clarified that the two were simply present at the same jewellery store for an opening ceremony and had no personal connection whatsoever.
She even jokingly addressed the camera, saying, “I’m sorry sir, aapke do-teen bachhe hain, I don’t know what your life is!” She admitted that the whole situation was extremely embarrassing.

Tired of False Narratives
Speaking more broadly about how it feels to be repeatedly linked to people she’s never had any connection with, Tamannaah said, “It’s very awkward jab koi bhi taaluq nahi hota hai and log bana dete hai. But there is nothing you can do. Waqt lagta hai you come to accept that aap iske baare mein kuch kar nahi sakte. Jisko jaisa sochna hai wo waisa hi sochega. Aap sabko baith ke control nahi kar sakte.”
Tamannaah’s calm and humorous way of handling false narratives shows her maturity and grace. She remains focused on her work and encourages audiences to do the same.
