Cricketer Mohammad Kaif turned the latest target of Twitter trolls after he posted photos of himself doing the Surya Namaskar. However, he handled the controversy without rancour.
“Surya Namasakar is a complete workout for the physical system,” he tweeted, posting his pictures of the asana.

But, some found it offensive to religious sentiments. “Surya namashkar is adverse our culture society and traditions of islam.why are you posting a controversial statement,” said one.
However, Kaif did not buckle down over such criticism. “I can’t understand what doing any exercise to do with religion,” he retorted.
