Bigg Boss OTT’s Urfi Javed says she’s not ‘never associated’ with Javed Akhtar, after outfit controversy

Bigg Boss OTT fame actress Urfi Javed has clarified that she is not associated with lyricist-screenwriter Javed Akhtar in any way. Her statement comes days after actor Shabana Azmi reacted to online speculation that Urfi is the granddaughter of Javed.

The rumors started after Urfi Javed was spotted recently at the Mumbai airport, after her exit from the Bigg Boss OTT house, wearing a ripped denim cropped shirt over a bralette and jeans. She was criticized for her outfit.

Speaking to a news agency, Urfi said, “People have cooked up stories just because my entire name is Urfi Javed. But he was never associated with me in any way. All this is just done to troll him and put his name down by associating my outfit controversy with him. But how is that even relevant? Even if his own granddaughter wears anything of her choice what’s wrong with that? Why is he being held responsible for that?”

When the rumors first started doing the rounds a few days ago, Shabana Azmi had clarified on Twitter that Urfi Javed was not related to her family. Sharing a video that claimed Urfi was Javed’s granddaughter, Shabana wrote, “She is not related to us on anyway. Stop spreading lies (sic).”

Check it out:

Urfi was evicted from Bigg Boss OTT because she had no connection in the house. She was voted out by the audience. In the earlier episode, Zeeshan Khan had switched his connection with Urfi to be with Divya Agarwal. This left Urfi angry and hurt.
