Since last two days social media is going insane and people couldn’t stop thrashing Virender Sehwag for trolling Kargil martyr’s daughter, Gurmehar Kaur, for her video. Gurmehar practically became a well-known face on social media when she posted a powerful video last year in May in which she held a placard that stated: “Pakistan did not kill my dad, war killed him”.
Now we all know that the world loves Virender Sehwag’s pun and wit and over the last few months, he has grabbed the title of ‘King Of Funny Tweets’ as he posts hilarious tweets ever. So like always he tried to be funny and posted a picture that stated: “I didn’t score two triple centuries, my bat did”, but this time his pun wasn’t on point to understand and the world lashed out at him aggressively.
It was clear that he had no idea that this tweet will backfire on him and he clearly didn’t understand the sensitivity of the matter. A lot of people including Geeta and Babita Phogat came forward to speak up about the matter and he was strongly accused of bullying Gurmehar Kaur.
After a two days of facade on social media, today he finally spoke up and tweeted a series of tweets to clarify that he didn’t aim to bully Gurmehar and he supports her powerful expressions and views.
He may have tweeted in Gurmehar’s support now but that doesn’t neglects the fact that he, without any conscious of how saddening it can get, started this in the very first place and now Gurmehar’s name is being used for all kinds of moral, social and political propagandas. Gurmehar is just a 20 year old individual, this is just unfair to her and to any Indian youngster who speaks her/his mind.
