While actress Shivangi Verma has finally opened up on allegations put on her by veteran Govind Namdev. A picture of the two of them sparked dating rumours, and while the actress has always refuted these baseless rumours, a recent remark by Govind has left her shocked. The latter has blamed her for planting the picture to gain publicity.

“I was shocked when I read Govindji’s reaction. A normal post was done with his consent and he accepted the collaboration request and deleted it on his own,” she says.

She adds, “I, as a professional actress, deserve dignity too just because he is a veteran character actor he can’t accuse me. What will I get by gaining publicity out of such a matter.”

Clarifying her current situation, she says, “I am paired opposite a known star in an upcoming project and I am looking at young pairings. I have clarified twice in the past, once in December and once in May, and I want to clarify once and for all, that the dating rumours are baseless. It seems social media has become a platform like Bigg Boss. I am doing two important projects and am focused on my career.”
