Ibrahim Ali Khan expresses REGRET on THREATENING Pakistani critic over 'nose job' remark: 'Won't happen again'

Ibrahim Ali Khan, who recently made his Bollywood debut with Netflix's Naadaniyan opposite Khushi Kapoor became the center of incessant trolling after the release of the film. While the actor stayed away from reacting to any of it, he made headlines after a screenshot of him 'threatening' a Pakistani critic was shared by the latter. 

The critic in question was seen mocking Ibrahim's 'nose job,' and further mocked his acting prowess in Naadaniyan. Losing his calm, Ibrahim threatened to beat him up if he ever ran into him. The critic then shared a screenshot of the chat on his Instagram handle and exposed the Naadaniyan fame. Ibrahim said, ''Ugly goddamn piece of shit, I feel bad for you and uour family and if I see you on the streets one day, I'll make sure I leave you uglier than you are, you walking piece of s**m.''

Now reacting to that incident, Ibrahim has expressed his 'regret' over the same. The Naadaniyan actor feels he should not have reacted in such a manner and stated that he is new to public scrutiny. Speaking to Filmfare, Ibrahim said, ''I know I shouldn’t have reacted but I’m also new to public scrutiny. When he made that personal comment about my body, it felt like a below-the-belt remark. But going forward, I’ll be more composed. I shouldn’t have reacted. It won’t happen again."

I know I shouldn’t have reacted but I’m also new to public scrutiny. When he made that personal comment about my body, it felt like a below-the-belt remark.

For the uninformed, Ibrahim and Khushi's Naadaniyan did not receive good response from the viewers. Both Khushi and Ibrahim were subjected to heavy social media trolling too. Veteran actress and Ibrahim's grand mother Sharmila Tagore also spoke about the film and stated that the film was 'bad,' however, Ibrahim looked handsome. According to a report in Times Now, the veteran actress said, ''Ibrahim's film was not good, but he still looks very handsome. He has tried his best. These things shouldn't really be said in front of everyone, but honestly, the picture isn't great. Ultimately, the picture has to be good.''

Naadaniyan also starred popular faces like Jugal Hansraj, Juhi Chawla, Mahimma Choudhary, Apoorva Mukhija and others in pivotal roles.
