‘Actor’ Ajaz Khan, who once said that he would choose Quran over the constitution, mocks Hindu sage Narada Muni, apologises later

On Saturday (20th July), a video of Bollywood ‘actor’ Ajaz Khan went viral on social media wherein he was seen ridiculing Hindu sage Narada Muni as ‘untrustworthy.’

He made the contentious remarks during a media interaction. Khan accused a YouTuber named Love Kataria of defaming his friend and leaking his secret.

“Are you getting my point? You share your personal matter or secret with your friend but he tells the world about it,” he was heard saying.

Hello @MumbaiPolice @mieknathshinde
यह व्यक्ति जिसका नाम एजाज़ ख़ान है जो आये दिन हिंदुओं की भावनाओं को ठेस पहुँचता रहता है इसका एक और ऐसा ही वीडियो आया है जिसमे यह प्रभु नारद मुनि और भगवान विष्णु अर्थात् नारायण जी का मजाक बना रहा है ।

In order to describe the supposed deceitful and disloyal behaviour of YouTuber Love Kataria, the ‘actor’ invoked the example of Hindu sage Narada Muni.

“This is like Narad Muni. Narayan, Narayan. Kataria should change his name to Narad Muni,” he brazened out. Following outrage on social media, Ajaz Khan tendered an apology on Sunday (21st July).

“Hello everyone, I heartily apologise if I have hurt my Hindu brothers and sisters about my “Narayan” remark, It was not deliberate as I always say you read my Quran and I read your Geeta, which clearly states my respect for Hindu religion and not only that I respect every religion as I respect mine…” he said in a tweet.

“I meant Narad muni and not lord Narayana in the reference of that statement… I truly apologise if I have hurt anyone God is one. Jai hind,” he further stated.

Ajaz Khan is not new to controversies. In 2018, the ‘actor’ said that he would choose the Quran over the Indian Constitution on any day. He was previously jailed for drug trafficking and had incited 40 crore Muslims (both legal and illegal) to hit the streets and create unrest.
