Urvashi Rautela often hits the headlines, be it through her out-of-the-box sartorial picks or even her shocking claims about her life. The diva, who was crowned as Miss Universe Diva in 2015, often leaves a section of the audience unimpressed with her queen-size life and anecdotes from her personal life. Something similar happened yet again, when Urvashi claimed herself to be an IITian, before she entered into the showbiz world.
Taking to the discussion forum, Reddit, a user recently shared a clip of one of Urvashi Rautela’s interviews, where she claimed to have cleared IIT before marking her step into Bollywood. In the clip, a reporter can be seen asking Urvashi to explain her claims of being an IITian in many of her previous interactions. To this, the diva explained that she did clear the IIT before she debuted in the film industry. She could be quoted as saying:
“I had Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science, and I scored 96 percentage for the board exams. And I do not want to disrespect any IITian, its dream for everybody, like it was mine. I was preparing for it, I have cleared it, so yeah.”
