Farhan Akhtar and Cristiano Ronaldo

Farhan Akhtar’s tribute to Cristiano Ronaldo amid the trolling that the footballer has encountered after Portugal lost in the FIFA World Cup 2022, has not gone down well with his fans. That Akhtar — who has repeatedly raised his voice in favour of women, and set up the social media campaign, Men Against Rape and Discrimination (Mard) — supported Ronaldo, whose acquittal from a rape case has been challenged in the US, has irked his fans. Ronaldo had reportedly confessed to lawyers to indulging in sex with a woman years ago, despite the fact that she repeatedly said ‘no’. “You set up Mard and then celebrate a rapist. Disappointing but not surprising,” said one user, while another said, “He admitted to raping a woman. So, maybe, not such a great guy.” Akhtar heaped praise on the footballer for his skills and diligence.
