Jackky Bhagnani raised eyebrows after calling his marriage with actress Rakul Preet Singh a ‘situationship’. Rakul clarified that her husband’s statement was taken out of context and sensationalised. Now, in her latest social media post, she has urged everyone to just “laugh about it and move on” from the remark.

She shared a fun video on her Instagram Stories, where she can be seen mockingly scolding Jackky for making the controversial remark. The De De Pyaar De 2 actress is heard saying, “How many times have I told him that we are millennials, there is no need to act like Gen Z?” Jackky insisted that he did not intend the statement in the way it was perceived. “I am sorry, but I did not mean it like that,” he replied.
To this, Rakul said, “I know, but the world needs to know. It’s okay. Considering you guys are not stopping, we thought we would also have a laugh about it.” The clip further had the text, “Hogaya AAP log ka bhi ab… laugh about it and move on…”, followed by a red heart emoji.
About Jackky Bhagnani’s statement
Recently, Rakul and Jackky opened up about why they got married. During the conversation, the filmmaker said, “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.”
Later, clearing the air around the viral statement, Rakul wrote on her Instagram Stories, “We had a great laugh today about how one line from an hour-long conversation can suddenly become the headline. 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.”
Rakul Preet and Jackky reportedly dated for nearly three years before tying the knot on February 21, 2024, in Goa. They had two wedding ceremonies—a Punjabi Anand Karaj in the afternoon, followed by a Sindhi ceremony at night.
