Bollywood actress Urvashi Rautela is known for starring in films such as Sanam Re, Great Grand Masti, Kaabil, Hate Story 4 and last year's Pagalpanti to name a few. The popular actress however has been in the midst of a plagiarism controversy after a tweet about the Oscar-winning film, Parasite, shared on her Twitter account came under fire from the Twitterati who pointed out striking similarities to New York-based journalist JP Brammer's tweet a while back.

Soon after Urvashi had posted the tweet about Parasite saying, "One thing I really love about @ParasiteMovie is that rather than depict the fam as scammers pretending to be good at their jobs, they actually do their jobs flawlessly! what they lack isn’t skill, but institutional stamps of approval & the bows and ribbons that rich people love,", a side-by-side comparison of the actress' statement and JP Brammer's words went viral on social media.

With the controversy taking new shape each day, Urvashi Rautela's spokesperson earlier today issued a statement denying the allegations saying it was the actress' social media team that had posted the tweet. Urvashi's spokesperson stated, "It was done by her social media team, and Urvashi was completely unaware of it, and after we came across it, we took the necessary steps. Apology for the inconvenience,".
