Ali Zafar Mocks Eid Outfit Backlash With Viral Sarcastic Apology

The flap underscores how India’s blocks on Pakistani stars’ Instagram accounts push cross‑border pop culture into screenshots.

Overview

  • Zafar, who posted the note on X on Tuesday, said he was sorry for wearing a see‑through kurta without an undershirt and for watering plants in an Ajrak dhoti.
  • He extended the bit with follow‑ups, including a photo in an undershirt and a gym picture that kept the joke going.
  • His official Instagram remains inaccessible in India after 2025 policy moves tied to the Pahalgam attack, so the apology spread through reposts and screenshots.
  • Responses skewed positive, with users praising his humor and teasing him to remember the undershirt next time.
  • Indian outlets highlighted his Bollywood work and platform limits, while reports also noted his unresolved 2018 legal dispute with actor Meesha Shafi.
