ANUSHKA becomes scapegoat once again in a BV event

Anushka Sharma, who was seen cheering for her cricketer boyfriend Virat Kohli at the ongoing IPL match, seems to have become a sitting duck for a cancelled promotional event of Bombay Velvet.

Apparently, when a certain 'song unveiling' event of BV was cancelled, the spokesperson made it look like Anushka's absence was the cause for this cancellation. However, Anushka's PR has a different story to tell.

Anushka's team maintained that the event cancellation had nothing to do with Anushka as she was only on a scheduled break. The publicist said, "There is no question of an event being cancelled due to Anushka's absence. She was never supposed to be there in the first place. We are shocked to hear that this is the reward she gets for her professionalism."

A source close to the actress deemed it a bad publicity stunt and mentioned, "This is a new low in publicity. They will not dare to do this to an A-list actor. Moreover, the invite clearly mentioned that only Ranbir will attend the song launch along with Anurag and Karan Johar. Where was Anushka's name?"

During the trailer launch, RK was unavailable as he was busy shooting a promotional video for ICC World Cup. But then, no such tales had cropped up.
