Watch | ‘Jitna Chahe Jor Lagale’: Hasin Jahan’s Post Sparks Buzz After Shami’s Statement

Indian fast bowler Mohammed Shami’s estranged wife, Hasin Jahan, has stirred fresh discussion with a cryptic message on social media, just days after the cricketer spoke candidly about his personal life in an interview.

Jahan, who has been engaged in a long legal battle with Shami, subtly indicated that relentless attempts were being made to "scare" and "destroy" her. Yet she asserted that she would never capitulate to such threats. Referring to the ordeal she had to face in 2018—when she lodged an FIR against Shami and his relatives on charges of domestic violence and match-fixing—she asserted that she had faced greater challenges earlier and had come out stronger.

“Pagal awara kutto se darna hota mujhe, to 2018 me hi dar jaati. Jitna chahe jor lagale mujhe darane ki, jhukane ki, barbad karne ki, mai Allah ke karam se aur mazboot aur mazboot bante jaungi inshallah (If I were afraid of crazy stray dogs, I would have been scared back in 2018. No matter how much effort you put into scaring me, breaking me, or ruining me, with Allah's grace, I will keep becoming stronger and stronger, inshallah),” she wrote on Instagram, hinting at those trying to break her resolve.

Her post came hours after Shami, in a candid interview, said he preferred not to dwell on the past. “Leave that. I never regret the past. What’s gone is gone. I don’t want to blame anyone, including myself. I want to focus on my cricket. I don’t need these controversies,” the 34-year-old pacer said.

The pair, who married in 2014, started living apart from each other in 2018, with their caustic relationship frequently coming to light in public. Earlier this month, Jahan made new claims, accusing Shami of being a "womaniser" and neglecting their daughter's education while spending money on girlfriends.

Shami, who is busy recovering from injury, has also decided to stay away from personal controversies. Speaking on controversies involving cricketers, he said, "That's your job to investigate. Why do you want to hang us to death? Look at the other side as well. I focus on cricket, not controversies."

With Jahan's recent comments, the off-field divide between the two has again been in the limelight, even as Shami continues his quest towards a complete comeback to competitive cricket.
