Ram Charan issues public apology to Jasprit Bumrah after mistaking him to be footballer

Ram Charan apologised to Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah after mistakenly referring to him as a footballer during the Peddi event in Bhopal on Saturday. The actor’s slip-up quickly went viral on social media, sparking memes and reactions online.

During an interactive session, Ram Charan was asked to describe leading Indian cricketers in a few words. While speaking about Bumrah, he mistakenly said, “I love football, aap football ko itne aage bada rahe ho.” Taking to X later, Ram Charan wrote, “Uff... I’m genuinely so forgetful with names sometimes. Apologies to @Jaspritbumrah93 Ji for the mix-up - it was a genuine human error in the middle of all the excitement and the crowd.” 

He added, “I truly respect you and I am a huge fan of your game. You make every Indian feel proud when you consistently put batsmen on back foot.”
