R Madhavan clarifies his tweet on Baba Ka Dhaba wasn’t against elderly couple

Actor R Madhavan on Monday took to his Twitter to react to the ongoing controversy related to Baba Ka Dhaba and YouTuber Gaurav Wasan. The owner of the eatery in Delhi has filed a complaint against the YouTuber for misappropriating the money donated for the elderly couple’s benefit after their video went viral. Madhavan tweeted, “Elderly owner of Baba ka Dhaba duped in Delhi? Now this is the kind of thing that gives ppl a reason not to do good. Unacceptable. Now if this fraud couple is caught and punished ..FAITH will be restored .. @DelhiPolice full faith in you.”

Soon after his tweet, netizens started slamming the actor for speaking against the poor elderly couple while they were allegedly cheated by the YouTuber. Many Twitter users claimed that the actor has not read the news properly and reacted. However, Madhavan clarified that his tweet wasn’t against the elderly couple but he was talking about the couple who were accused. In a tweet, the Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein actor said, “DITTO —You please read the article carefully too.. NO ONE IS CALLING THE POOR OLD COUPLE ANYTHING… it’s the couple who took the funds on their behalf. ठीक से पढ़ाना यार।”

In another tweet he highlighted what he indicated at and wrote, “not the elderly couple.”
