Urvashi Rautela is once again making waves, this time with a fascinating claim about a temple dedicated to her in Uttarakhand. In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, the actor revealed, “There is a temple in my name in Uttarakhand. If you visit Badrinath, you’ll find the ‘Urvashi temple’ right next to it.” When asked if people visit the temple to seek blessings, she joked, “Ab mandir hai toh woh hi toh karenge (It’s a temple, they will do that only).”
Devotees and Fans
The actor went on to share that the temple does attract devotees, including students from Delhi University, who are said to offer prayers and even garland her pictures. She added, “They even call me ‘Damdamamai’.” Urvashi assured the host that this was all true and even pointed out that there were news articles about the temple. “I am being serious about it. It is true,” she asserted, clarifying any doubts about the claims.

Dreaming of a Temple in the South
Urvashi, who has built a steady presence in South Indian cinema, expressed her desire for a similar temple to be constructed in her honour down South. She shared that she hopes to see her fanbase in the region show the same level of admiration that she has received in Uttarakhand.

On the professional front, Urvashi was recently seen in a special dance number titled Sorry Bol in the film Jaat, starring Sunny Deol and Randeep Hooda. While the song received mixed reactions, some fans praised her energetic performance, and others pointed out its resemblance to the iconic Tip Tip Barsa Paani. Jaat, which hit theatres on April 10, had a lukewarm critical reception but managed a decent box-office performance, and a sequel has already been announced.
