Amid new jewellery ad controversy, Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub's wife Rasika shares photos from her baby shower

A popular jewellery brand’s advertisement has become the talk of the town much after its release as it got viciously trolled online and a trend started on Twitter to boycott it. The 45-second ad featured a Muslim family celebrating a traditional South Indian baby shower ceremony for their pregnant daughter-in-law. Amid the controversy, actor Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub's wife Rasika Agashe hits back at trolls and posted a picture from her baby shower on her social media handle. Rasika shared the photos after the jewellery brand withdrew the commercial. In the picture, Rasika can be seen sitting next to Zeeshan while her family does her "god bharai". She wrote, "Meri godbharai.. socha share kar dun (thought I should share it)." Rasika further added that everyone should learn about the Special Marriage Act before making false and hateful statements. Earlier, actress Mini Mathur also gave her example of a happy marriage with director Kabir Khan. Mini also questioned, "How does religion even matter?" Mini Mathur's note read as, "Look at the hate that has been enabled in this country. It's heartbreaking that Tanishq is forced to take down one of the most beautiful ads they have made ever. Thus and even more love is literally what I've experienced in my multicultural marriage. And yet Tanishq has chosen to pull off the add because some bigots have coined the term love jihad. Wtf does it even mean?" Earlier, Kangana Ranaut also opened up about the advertisement and compared it with ‘Love-Jihaad’. (All photos: Instagram)
