John Abraham Faces Criticism Over Photo with Olympic Star Manu Bhaker: The Full Story

At the Paris 2024 Olympics, India’s pistol shooter Manu Bhaker achieved a monumental feat, clinching two medals in a single event. Her extraordinary performance not only earned her a place on the podium but also brought immense pride to the nation. Upon her return to India, the young athlete was met with a reception brimming with warmth and enthusiasm, reflecting the national adoration for her success.

In a celebratory moment, Bollywood actor John Abraham had the opportunity to meet Bhaker, capturing the occasion in a photograph. This image, however, has sparked a significant controversy.

The Controversy Over the Photo

John Abraham posted the photograph of himself with Manu Bhaker on social media, featuring the pair smiling and posing together. In the snapshot, Bhaker proudly displayed one of her medals, while Abraham was seen holding the other. This gesture, intended as a mark of respect and celebration, has, instead, drawn criticism from some quarters.

Social media users expressed their discontent with Abraham's involvement in holding the medals. Critics argued that while the gesture was likely meant to honour Bhaker’s achievements, it was perceived as inappropriate. One commenter remarked, "Sorry, but you have no right to touch someone else's medals." Another stated, "It’s fine, but you shouldn’t have held her medals! She has two hands to hold both. You could have simply had a fan moment with her instead." Such reactions highlight a growing disapproval of Abraham's role in the photograph, with many condemning his decision to hold the medals.

John Abraham's Professional Ventures

Amidst the backlash, John Abraham continues to make headlines for his professional endeavours. His upcoming film, Veda, has generated significant buzz following the release of its trailer, which has been well-received by audiences. Furthermore, Abraham is also making waves with his forthcoming projects, including The Diplomat, Tehran, and Tariq. Fans are keenly anticipating his performances in these anticipated releases.
