Bollywood actor/comedian Kapil Sharma is constantly being ridiculed by Indians on social media for extended his support to Peshawar Zalmi in the third season of Pakistan Superior League.
They quickly started tweeting and posting about how Sharma is a traitor for cheering for their rival country.
What they didn’t know was this:
Javed Afridi, Chairman of Peshawar Zalmi, arranged a gala night just before the PSL inauguration ceremony for his team and some children from Shaukat Khanam Memorial Cancer Hospital.
Zalmis invited Kapil for bringing his ever-green humor to the stage, but India saw it as trading state secrets with Pakistan:

The TV host was criticized for performing for Pakistan and was even called ‘desperate’ as well as accused of selling himself to the biggest enemy of their nation.

However, there were some who came in favor of the star, even from India:

Everyone in India was outraged by Kapil’s involvement but forgot this ‘Indian’ actress who not only supports the Pakhtoon team but is also the brand ambassador of General Petroleum:
Listen to what she has to say – if only more Indians thought this way:
