“I don’t even tag them when I reply to them because I don’t want to give anything to them. I will always react with love,” Pathan was quoted as saying by ANI.

The Baroda-born Pathan, who has been seen as one of the premier bowlers in the Indian set-up, on August 8 posted his picture on photo-blogging site Instagram to wish ‘Happy Rakhi everyone’, as he was seen Rakhi tied around his wrist on the auspicious occasion.

“There are always going to be haters. There are always going to be some people who will say negative about you. And my reaction is not for them,” Pathan added.

It’s pertinent to mention, Pathan was also slammed on social media after uploading a photograph alongside his wife Safa Baig owing to the un-Islamic attire.

“I always make sure I keep my dignity and I don’t go overboard. I don’t use foul language,” Pathan revealed.
