Saif Ali Khan’s son Ibrahim Ali Khan, who made his acting debut with Nadaaniyan movie, recently caught into controversy after his alleged message to a Pakistani critic Tamur Iqbal surfaced online. It sparked outrage among the netizens who trolled Tamur for his review of Ibrahim's latest release. It all started after Tamur shared screenshot of Nadaaniyan actor and his direct message to him on Instagram, where he seemed to lash out at the critic for his comments. Now, the critic has given the latest update amid this controversy stating that he has been receiving abusive messages from Indians ever since the incident.
Pakistani critic Tamur Iqbal took to his Instagram handle and shared a video message where he talked about the incident with Ibrahim Ali Khan. He was heard saying, “This is an update. 48 hours later, the gaaliyaan, the abusive messages have still not stopped on my Instagram…the threats…predominantly coming from Indian social media users who are still visibly upset about my review." He urged everyone to make it a Indo-Pak rivalary and asked them to chill. Tamur stated, “Don’t turn it into some Indo-Pak rivalry. It’s not. Take a chill pill. It’s just a bad movie, I posted a story about it and it got the attention of Ibrahim Ali Khan, leading to this entire mess."

Taking dig at Ibrahim, he added, “On a lighter note, the leading stars should thank me for creating this controversy about a movie which was completely dead and buried. Now at least people might consider watching it again. It’s a terrible, lousy movie. Watch it if you want to destroy your Sunday. And Ibrahim, good luck!"
Ibrahim Ali Khan And Pakistani Critic Controversy
The verbal spat started between Ibrahim Ali Khan and Pakistani critic Tamur Iqbal after the latter made harsh remarks on Ibrahim's performance in his debut film Nadaaniyan, especially the nose job comment that sparked the outrage. A few days ago, Tamur shared a screenshot of his alleged chat with Ibrahim on Instagram messages. The chat showed Irabhim’s message that read, “Tamur almost like Taimoor… you got my brother’s name. Guess what you don’t got? His face. You ugly piece of trash. Since you can’t keep your words to yourself, don’t bother, they’re irrelevant just like you. Ugly goddamn piece of shit I feel bad for you and your family – and if I see you on the streets one day, I’ll make sure I leave you uglier than you are – you walking piece of scum."

In the chat, Tamur can be seen admitting his nose job comment was in poor taste but he owned up rest of his review. Tamur responded publicly, acknowledging that his nose job comment was in poor taste but defended the rest of his review. He even humorously added, “Hahahahaha see that’s my man. This is the guy I want to see in the movie. Not that fake cornetto mushy cringy human.” He expressed his admiration for Ibrahim’s father, Saif Ali Khan, urging Ibrahim not to let him down.
The situation escalated even more when Tamur revealed that Ibrahim had blocked him on Instagram. This conversation of the two, generated debates among netizens on social media.
