Mumbai: Rohit Sharma’s wife, Ritika Sajdeh, faced controversy after posting an Instagram story with the caption "All Eyes On Rafah" to support Palestine. Many Hindus criticized her for not speaking about the issues faced by Kashmiri and Pakistani Hindus.
Critics were upset and questioned why Sajdeh had chosen to highlight the situation in Rafah while remaining silent on the problems of these communities. They felt her support was selective and unfair.

The controversy shows the challenges celebrities and their families face when talking about political and social issues, especially in a diverse country like India. Ritika Sajdeh’s decision to remove the post highlights the pressures of dealing with public opinion on social media.
