Mumbai: India is a democratic country where people are free to make their own choices. However, the problem arises when certain sections of the society cannot respect the choices made by other people.
Despite living in a democracy, the common man of the nation often finds himself or herself under scrutiny of the moral police.
Something similar happened to one of the legends of Indian cricket this week.

One particular fan even pushed the buck a little further, calling the captain of the Indian cricket team a “porn star”.

However, not all fans criticised Mithali. The 34-year-old cricketer, who has scored a world record 6,190 runs in ODI cricket, received a lot of support from a number of other fans.
Walnut sized brained people will always have some nonsensical observations to make!! Shame on them😕
