Urvashi Rautela got embroiled in controversy when a private bathroom video of the actress was leaked online in June 2024. The incident quickly sparked a debate on social media, with people questioning whether it was a violation of privacy or a calculated PR stunt. 

To add fuel to the fire, a phone call recording between Urvashi and her manager was also leaked. However, it was later revealed that the entire episode was a publicity stunt, with the bathroom scene being taken from her movie ‘Ghuspaithiya’.

In a recent interview, Urvashi Rautela shared that the leaked bathroom video was intentionally released, as the filmmakers asked for her consent beforehand. She explained that the makers were in a financial crisis, burdened by debt, and on the brink of selling their land. Rautela also mentioned that the video was meant to raise awareness, urging young girls to be more cautious.

In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Urvashi Rautela has finally revealed the reason for the same, stating, "Unko kuch debt aa gaya tha, aur kuch udhari wagairah mein (They had some debt and were caught up in loans and such). They had to let go of their land and all. Woh sadak pe aane wale the (They were on the verge of being out on the streets). And so, they came and discussed it with my business manager, head, and all."

“And then, they took our permission ki woh movie ka scene tha, kuch aisa special nahi kiya tha humne. Woh movie ka hi scene tha. Toh un makers ka yeh ek request thi ki kya hum isko pehle leak out kar sakte hain. And it was sort of awareness also ki ladkiyon ko have to be careful (it was a scene from the movie; it wasn’t something special we had done. It was part of the movie itself. The makers requested if they could release it early. It was also intended to create awareness, especially for girls to be cautious)," she added.
