The remark soon went viral, prompting Rakul to step in and clarify the intent behind it. Taking to Instagram Stories, she wrote that a single line from an hour-long conversation had been turned into a headline and stressed that context and nuance matter.
She added, “Funny… until it’s not. Context matters. Nuance matters. Conversations deserve better than being reduced to clickbait. Maybe it’s time platforms take a little more responsibility for the narratives they create.”
What Jackky Bhagnani said
During the chat, Jackky explained their equation, saying, “Rakul and I are married, but we are like in a situationship, which is, of course, we are exclusive to each other because that’s why we are married. But the most important thing is that I can talk to her about anything.”
He further spoke about their perspective on marriage, saying they are both past their early twenties and have experienced many highs and lows in life. He added that he is content as an individual and does not look for a partner to complete any emotional gap.
Rakul shared a similar view, explaining that their relationship is not about depending on each other for happiness or fulfilment. She said it is not about small expectations or frustrations, and added that she is comfortable doing things independently, believing there are more meaningful aspects of life to focus on.
