After receiving severe backlash on social media over his controversial meme on Aishwarya Rai, Vivek Oberoi has finally apologised and deleted the tweet on Tuesday morning.
Now, the actor has issued an apology, tweeting, “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.”
In another post, he wrote, “Even if one woman is offended by my reply to the meme, it calls for remedial action. Apologies.”
