"You'll Always Be My Champion": Actor Siddharth's Apology To Saina Nehwal

Actor Siddharth asserted that his "word play" had "none of the malicious intent" that was attributed to it.

Actor Siddharth has apologised for his "rude joke" on badminton player Saina Nehwal following an uproar over his recent remark. Dear @NSainapic.twitter.com/plkqxVKVxY No nation can claim itself to be safe if the security of its own PM gets compromised. I condemn, in the strongest words possible, the cowardly attack on PM Modi by anarchists.#BharatStandsWithModi#PMModi This is upsetting for us … express ur opinion but choose better words man . I guess u thought it was cool to say it this way . #notcool#disgraceful@Actor_Siddharth

The actor has asserted that his "word play" had "none of the malicious intent" that was attributed to it.

Responding to a tweet by Ms Nehwal in which she raised concerns over the breach in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's security during his visit to Punjab, Siddharth tweeted, "Subtle cock champion of the world... Thank God we have protectors of India. Folded hands. Shame on you Rihanna."
