Hardik Pandya has announced his return to form with both the bat and the ball bailing out his team Mumbai Indians from many a tough situation in this years IPL. There is no doubt that he is going to be one of the most watched out for cricketer in the upcoming World Cup and a great asset to Team India. However, controversy and Hardik go hand in hand and the most recent is by actress Krystle D'Souza who posted a photo of her with the star allrounder and captaining it "Mere Bhai Jaisa Koi Hard ich Nahi Hai ".

Krystle D'Souza's followers started trolling and one person going by the name of Sameer wrote the insulting ""Kaalu bhai. Aap West indies team ke world cup squad main select kyun nahi huye?.

Actor Aparshakti Khurana gave it back to the hater “Hi Sameer. I think you should not write such comments and definitely not use such language. We all love Hardik because he is a performer. You should rather encourage the Indian team, especially before the World Cup,”.

Responding to Aparshakti’s tweet, Krystle also wrote, “that’s so well put! People are so mean and obnoxious and just because they are sitting behind a screen typing , they think they can get away with anything ! I guess ignorance is bliss in this case ! Their words make no difference to his superb performance... BUT Thank you.”

It is a well-documented fact that Hardik Pandya got into a lot of trouble for making sexist comments on Koffee With Karan along with good buddy K.L. Rahul which caused them to lose a lot of money over fines and almost their place in the Indian team as well.
