Tamil actress Lakshmi Rai, who has been romantically linked with M.S. Dhoni, rubbishes reports that she flew down to Mumbai from here to console the Indian cricket skipper after the Indian team was ousted from the T20 World Cup. A Tamil daily had published the report.

“Though I was deeply upset by India’s exit from the T20 World Cup, I didn’t break down into tears as reported. Neither did I fly to Mumbai to meet Dhoni to talk to him and console him… it’s nothing but media’s figment of imagination. I just sent a consoling message to Dhoni and that’s all,” said the actress.

“Actually, I’m too busy to have time for such things. Nowadays, I make it a point to even take part in the story discussion of films in which I’m working. So, this keeps me very busy,” added the actress who featured in Tamil films like “Azhagiya Aabathu” and “Velli Thirai”.
