Anushka Shetty has once again found herself at the centre of marriage rumours circulating online. Recently, fresh reports claimed that the actress was set to marry a businessman. Now her team has officially dismissed the rumors by sharing a lengthy note on Instagram handle.
Official statement slams media speculation
On March 17, Anushka Shetty’s team issued a strong statement addressing the ongoing rumours.The Instagram post read, “To the media houses and pages constantly posting about Anushka Shetty’s alleged marriage. At least wait for an official confirmation before turning someone’s personal life into daily headlines. Speculating, assuming, and repeatedly publishing unverified information is not journalism — it’s intrusion.”
They further wrote, “There is a clear line between reporting facts and feeding off rumors, and right now, that line is being completely ignored. What’s even more disappointing is the unnecessary fixation on her age. Why is “44” being highlighted in almost every post as if it’s something controversial or defining? This constant age mention comes across as subtle but persistent age-shaming. If age is suddenly such a big deal, then where is this same energy when it comes to male actors? Why is the narrative always different for women?”“Anushka Shetty has built her career with dignity, talent, and grace without depending on PR stunts or constant social media visibility. Targeting someone like her who maintains a private and low-profile life makes this behavior even more unfair. Not everyone chooses to live their life in the public eye 24/7, and that choice deserves respect,” the note added.It further says, “Marriage is a deeply personal matter. It is not breaking news, not a trend, and definitely not something to be sensationalized for engagement. Continuously pushing rumors without accountability only reflects poorly on the credibility of the platforms sharing them. Do better. Respect boundaries. Verify before you publish. And most importantly, treat actresses with the same fairness and dignity you so often extend to male stars.”
Anushka Shetty earlier reacted to similar claims
Back in 2020, Anushka Shetty had addressed similar rumours linking her to a cricketer from North India. She dismissed the reports and urged people to treat such matters sensitively.Reacting to the claims, she had told IB Times, “None of that news is true. I don’t get affected by such rumours. Don’t know why my wedding is such a big deal for anyone. Nobody can hide a relationship. How can I hide my wedding? It is a very sensitive matter and people should deal it with some sensitivity.”On the professional front, Anushka Shetty will next be seen in ‘Kathanar: The Wild Sorcerer’ alongside Jayasurya and it marks her Malayalam debut.
