“Lunch with My Best Friend” – And the Backlash Begins

On Instagram, Shoaib posted a warm caption:

> “Lunch with my best friend,” referring to his 6-year-old son Izhaan.

However, the internet didn’t receive it the way he may have hoped. Many followers lashed out, questioning his parental responsibility, especially in the wake of his divorce from Indian tennis star Sania Mirza.

Netizens Slam Shoaib’s Fatherhood

Soon after the post went viral, users flooded the comments section with criticism. One user wrote:

> “Just taking your child out for a meal doesn’t make you a ‘best friend’. Real fatherhood means constant presence and responsibility.”

Another said:

> “You call him your best friend, but being a father is more than one meal. This isn’t just the mother’s responsibility!”

Others pointed out that children often suffer when marriages break down:

> “After divorce, the child becomes a pawn between two homes. You should think about children before rushing into marriages or separations.”

From Cricket Legend to Celebrity Criticism

Once celebrated for his cricketing achievements, Shoaib Malik’s personal life now often overshadows his sports legacy. From his controversial first marriage to Ayesha Siddiqui, to his high-profile wedding with Sania Mirza in 2010, and now his surprise marriage to actress Sana Javed in 2024 — Shoaib has consistently made headlines beyond the pitch.

Divorce Drama and Sana Javed

The quiet end to his 13-year marriage with Sania Mirza shocked fans. In January 2024, Shoaib revealed his new marriage to Sana Javed, who was previously married to singer Umair Jaswal. Their sudden wedding announcement drew intense criticism.

Even now, Sana Javed continues to receive backlash from those who believe she played a role in the Malik-Mirza split.

Emotional Reactions and Moral Reflections

While Shoaib Malik may have intended the lunch with Izhaan as a loving moment, many see it as an attempt to maintain public image rather than an act of responsible fatherhood. Some users expressed sympathy for Sania Mirza, stating that:

“This divorce should never have happened. Sania was mature and educated

. Problems could have been solved with mutual understanding.”

Mallika Sherawat’s Video Sparks Outrage

A day after Shefali’s death, actress Mallika Sherawat posted a video on social media that ignited controversy. In her video, Mallika urged fans to reject Botox and cosmetic fillers, promoting a more natural and healthy lifestyle.

She said, “No makeup, no filters, no hair brushing—just a natural me. Let’s say no to artificial enhancements.”

While her message may have had good intentions, its timing—right after Shefali’s death—was seen by many as insensitive, especially because Shefali reportedly used skincare supplements like Vitamin C and Glutathione.

Rakhi Sawant Responds Sharply

Among those who criticized Mallika, Rakhi Sawant was the loudest. Known for her bold opinions, Rakhi fired back in a selfie video, calling out Mallika’s remarks as judgmental and inappropriate.

> “What is this? Mallika Sherawat says she’s natural and blames Botox for Shefali’s death? Who are you to say that? The doctors and forensic reports will reveal the truth!”

— Rakhi Sawant

Rakhi further accused Mallika of exploiting the situation, adding sarcastically that Mallika is trying to act superior by showcasing her natural look.

Rakhi’s Sharp Words and Bollywood Throwback

Rakhi didn’t stop at criticism. She mocked Mallika by singing her old hit song “Bheege Honth Tere” and added,

“You’ve spent many nights like that, enough to settle in America. Don’t lecture others.”

Her direct and emotional response gained support from fans who felt Mallika’s timing was in poor taste.
