Fans divided over Ibrahim asking for Rema's jacket
As Rema performed at the baraat and removed his jacket, Ibrahim tried pulling it. The former refused to let it go and threw it over to Shikhar Paharia as Ibrahim smiled while standing at the first row.
A fan commented, “He isn't begging...he is nawab .. it's a fan moment.” Another fan wrote, “Such innocence. Even they have their own fan moments.” A person wrote, “Bhai vo nawab hai 50 rima khreed lega (He is a Nawab, he can buy 50 Remas).” Another fan defended Ibrahim and wrote, “Those who are saying it’s so embarrassing. Bhai wo bhi to kissi ka fan ho sakta hai na (He too can be somebody's fan).” Another user jokingly commented, “That's why they say. Never meet your idols in person.” A fan also pointed out, “He was just being kind and trying to hold it for him during his performance.” However, a user riased objection and wrote, “That's embarrassing. Why does he need the singer's jacket anyway?” Another user commented, “Shikhar ne jacket pheeek diya (Shikar threw away the jacket).”
