Pakistani Cricketer Abdul Razzaq Apologizes For Offensive Remarks On Aishwarya Rai Bachchan At An Event, Says 'Meri Zubaan Fisal Gayi Thi' - WATCH
Former Pakistani cricketer Abdul Razzaq made shocking comments about Aishwarya Rai Bachchan at a public event in Pakistan in the presence of Shahid Afridi and Umur Gul. The all-rounder expressed strong criticism towards the present Pakistan cricket team, raising doubts about the players' motives. In his remarks in Urdu, he said, "If you expect to marry Aishwarya Rai and anticipate the birth of a pious and virtuous child, that can never happen." This didn't go well with the Indian audience and they bashed him for making such comments on the former Miss World.

One of the netizens wrote, ‘What an absolutely shameful and disgusting guy Abdul Razzaq is? Does Islam permit to talk such trashy, nonsensical and being disrespectful towards a woman?’ The video of the incident has surfaced online and now Razzaq chose to break silence and apologise to the Indian actress for his disgusting remarks.

The 43-year-old posted an apology video online and said, "I am very ashamed of yesterday and I realise I said very bad words. I apologise to everyone, please forgive me,” he wrote, and said in his statement that he originally wanted to use a different analogy, but because of a slip of tongue, took Aishwarya Rai’s name." Even Shoaib Akhtar took to Twitter, condemning the disrespectful treatment of women and criticized Gul and Afridi for supporting Razzaq's comments. Additionally, MP Priyanka Chaturvedi joined in, slamming the ex-cricketer's remarks, asserting, "Aishwarya continues to maintain her dignity despite their disgraceful comments."
