Team India opener KL Rahul and his wife Athiya Shetty allegedly visited a ‘strip club’ in London recently as some videos went viral on social media in which the couple could be seen together. Netizens have slammed KL Rahul and Athiya Shetty for visiting the strip club and some of them even ask them to learn from Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma.
KL Rahul, who’s the skipper of IPL franchise LSG, had recently suffered an injury on the right thigh while sprinting behind the ball during the RCB vs LSG game. After the game, he was ruled out of the competition as he declared himself unfit.
Later, KL Rahul informed his fans that he will be undergoing surgery on his right thigh and will miss the WTC Final as well. He had then shared a couple of pictures of him on his Instagram account walking on the streets of London with the help of crutches. His wife and actress Athiya Shetty was also seen in the pictures.
