Shresta Iyer, a professional dancer and sister of Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer, deleted a video she posted after a rain-affected IPL match against Kolkata Knight Riders, which resulted in both teams sharing points. In the video, she humorously expressed Punjabi generosity, saying, 'We Punjabis are big-hearted. So, we gave you a point.' However, the light-hearted nature of her post was met with severe backlash, including threats, prompting her to remove it. Shresta took to Instagram to explain her decision, stating that while she did not believe she did anything wrong, she wanted to avoid negativity and respect her brother's team. She reiterated her support for her brother and called for a more positive attitude among fans, emphasizing that sports should be enjoyed and celebrated without hostility. Shresta urged fans to take the rivalry in sports lightly and promote love rather than hate.
