What was the speculation about?
 There were rumours of a celebrity cricketer misbehaving with her. It was reported that the said person in an inebriated condition tried to touch her inappropriately for which she slapped him. This piece of gossip had not only brought the celebs under the negative light, but there was a feeling that such incident could become a black mark to the event which united celebs from across the country.

Later, Priyamani, during an interview, had denied the rumours and put an end to the baseless story. "I will tell you what exactly happened there. Someone played a prank with me by stealing my mobile. It was my brother's cell that I was using for the time being. I was tensed and requested every member from the hotel staff to help me out,"

A Prank Gone Wrong

"In the end, the person, who played the prank with me, came to me stating that he was having it. I don't want to name the person and I was furious because it was my brother's phone. So, I told him that please don't do it and it was unfair... yes it was little politely rude," she added.

However, Priyamani did not reveal the name of the person although the interviewer had asked to name it. Later, the speculations died.
