Vivek apologises and deletes his tweet

And finally here comes an apology from Vivek Oberoi, who for all that you know, had come at the receiving end for sharing a ‘disrespectful’ meme featuring Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Oberoi, who reportedly dated the actor-former Miss World in the early 2000s, posted a meme featuring her with husband Abhishek Bachchan, daughter Aaradhya and Salman Khan.

The meme was a take on the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the results of which will be declared on Thursday.

However, perhaps Vivek had a change of mind as he just took up to Twitter to not only delete the meme but also issue a public apology to everyone who got offended by his not-so-funny joke.

“Sometimes what appears to be funny and harmless at first glance to one, may not be so to others. I have spent the last 10 years empowering more than 2000 underprivileged girls, I cant even think of being disrespectful to any woman ever. Even if one woman is offended by my reply to the meme, it calls for remedial action. Apologies tweet deleted.
