In a hilarious turn of events, Tamannaah has shared that what is being called the fifth-largest diamond in the world is actually a bottle opener. Her Instagram story read, "Hate to break it to you but we were doing a photo shoot with a bottle opener and not an actual diamond #GirlsLikeToPics" The ornate bottle opener can be easily mistaken for a ring based on how it was placed between Tamannaah's fingers.
