The Indian actor, former Tik Toker and social media influencer Zaid clicked a photo of a homeless man sleeping on the streets of Mumbai without his consent and cracked a wife joke. In the caption, he wrote, "No AC, no fan, no darkness, but still sleeping so peacefully because no wife?" Furthermore, he tagged Gauahar and added, "But I am the most peaceful with you jaanu I love you jaanu..." The son of popular music director and singer Ismail Darbar has been receiving massive backlash ever since then.

"Gauahar is always busy in gyaan peloying others and her husband is like this? Even yesterday madam had a problem at the polling booth. Also whotf gave him the right to click a random man's pic let alone while he is sleeping? Imagine if someone had clicked him or Gauahar Khan like that without consent," a user wrote.

Another user lashed out at him saying, "Oh my God. Where does one start? Making a misogynistic joke at the expense of someone who is clearly impoverished is his idea of humour? Consent naam ki bhi koi cheez hoti hai."

Others pointed out how Gauahar deserves respect. "Honestly, these wife jokes aren't funny. Especially for a wife who is the one financially supporting your lifestyle. He has made quite a few reels on these stupid, unfunny wife jokes. I find such jokes so disgusting. She works all year around, while all you do is make stupid reels. She deserves more respect!" said another user.

Another user called him out for mocking a poor man. "Tasteless joke in so many ways. It¡¯s obviously sexist and boomer humour. Of course it¡¯s also making fun of someone who is poor. What a sad man to get married to."
