'Total douche' - Former Pakistan skipper Wasim Akram shuts social media troll for derogatory remark about his wife

Pakistan's legendary fast bowler, Wasim Akram, took a stand against online harassment. Akram sternly slammed a fan's inappropriate comment on a picture he shared with his wife. The former captain had posted a heartfelt New Year's wish, expressing hope for a better year and extending well wishes to everyone's families. However, a fan's comment crossing the line led Akram to respond firmly.

In response to the remark, "Ufff, she is such a hotwife," Akram promptly rebuked the fan, questioning the appropriateness of such a comment. He didn't mince words, stating, "You think that's the appropriate thing to say? I wish to meet your parents and tell them what they have created—a total douche." Akram's direct response showcased his commitment to maintaining respect and decency on social media, especially when it comes to personal matters.

Wasim Akram is renowned for his no-nonsense attitude, both on and off the field. This incident further exemplifies his unwillingness to tolerate inappropriate behaviour or comments, setting a precedent for others to think twice before engaging in disrespectful online behaviour.

Earlier, Wasim Akram had found himself addressing another matter on social media—a false claim linking former Pakistan captain Imran Khan to the 'Jeffrey Epstein List.' Refuting the baseless allegation, Akram lashed out at the user spreading the misinformation, branding them a "muppet" and urging them to stop spreading lies.

In an era where online trolling has become prevalent, Wasim Akram's bold responses highlight the importance of drawing boundaries and maintaining a culture of respect in the digital realm. As a cricket icon and public figure, Akram's actions send a clear message about the need for responsible and considerate behaviour on social media platforms. It's worth noting that Akram got huge praise last year for his show on the ODI World Cup 2023, The Pavillion, which went viral for its amazing analysis among fans.
