Bollywood actress Rakul Preet Singh has addressed reports alleging she was linked to recent searches by the Income Tax Department. The Yaariyan star took to social media to refute the claims, stating "The search was not about me." Rakul urged media outlets to correct what she deemed as false and speculative reports.
