Singer and actor Farhan Saeed responded to an Indian fan on Instagram who was ‘hurt’ by the Tich Button star’s comment about the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) refusing to come to Pakistan for the 2023 Asia Cup.
He assured the fan in his Instagram story that he values the love and admiration of his Indian followers and that his remarks were only directed towards the BCCI and its Secretary, Jay Shah in particular.
He wrote:
What I said wasn’t for India, it was for the Indian cricket board and for those who involve sports and art into politics. I get so much love from India and I value that. That love is because people of both countries think and connect beyond politics and that’s how it should be.
Farhan Saeed Calls the BCCI Out
The actor was on Waseem Badami’s talk show Har Lamha Purjosh to promote his new film Tich Button and discussed with him how India has refused to attend the upcoming Asia Cup hosted by Pakistan.
Here is the clip:
“If this is what they [Indian cricket board] does and the World Cup takes place, then Pakistan should host a PSL here, the entire nation should go and see it, and boycott the World Cup because this is stupid and childish and has been happening for quite some time,” the actor said, and the other former cricketers on the show agreed to his comment.
