Urvashi Rautela took to her Twitter page and defended Boney Kapoor after the controversial viral video where he allegedly touched her inappropriately.
The month of March 2019 ended on a controversial note for producer Boney Kapoor and actor-model Urvashi Rautela. It so happened that Boney and Urvashi arrived more or less at the same time at producer Jayantilal Gada hosted son Aksshay Gada's wedding reception bash at a high-end hotel in Mumbai on Sunday. Both of them posed for the shutterbugs together along with other celebs on the red carpet.
However, a video went viral on the Internet, where Boney is reportedly seen touching Urvashi inappropriately after hugging her. Soon after the video hit the Internet, netizens started slamming the producer for his alleged actions. Urvashi went on to slam a report for the headline they gave and lashed out on her Twitter page. But that did not stop the netizens from bashing Boney left, right and centre.
Check out the few reactions below:

You have done very wrong instead of criticising & complaining you are ignoring it. Very bad. You are setting very bad example by this to all the girl and discouraging them and also misleading them.
Very shameful act https://t.co/XEabqpcdND
On her back ??

Where he touched (or patted) and how he touched is very inappropriate.
Film industry is becoming rubbish day by day.
Where he is like a womaniser on the other side she is also a self hypocrite for the fame & money, she ignored it.
The same thing could have been portrayed as sexual harassment by a different lady! This could very well been part of #MeToo movement too!!! It's all about reception and mindset of two people involved which creates two contrasting portrayal of a similar sort of incident.

Well that was a questionable pat by @BoneyKapoor . Gives light on the very important question..who decides the "appropriate-ness" ?
