Urvashi Rautela is under the spotlight for wrong reasons, once again. This time, it is for plagiarizing PM Narendra Modi's tweet for Shabana Azmi, after she was injured in a car accident on Saturday. The actress has copied it word-for-word and this has left Twitterati confused on why she did so.

On Saturday when Shabana Azmi was injured in a road accident, PM Narendra Modi called it 'distressing' and prayed for her quick recovery. A few hours later, Urvashi Rautela copied the same tweet on her feed. Netizens were nothing but bemused by this act. This is not the first time Urvashi Rautela has been criticised about plagiarising content on social media. In 2018, she had pulled out Gigi Hadid's post on negative 'rumours' about her relationship and released the same statement word-for-word.
