Suspended all-rounder Hardik Pandya was confined to the four walls of the house until a few days ago after Koffee With Karan 6 controversy. Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul had appeared on the chat show a few days ago and the Indian all-rounder passed sexist remarks. This resulted in the ouster of the duo from the team. As per his Father Himanshu, Hardik was not even taking calls and had isolated himself. But, today the all-rounder was spotted in Mumbai along with his brother Krunal Pandya.

The statements made on Koffee With Karan 6 not only cost him his place from the Indian team but also Pandya lost Gillette as a sponsor. Even Khar Gymkhana who had given Pandya an honorary membership, was also taken back. However, after the controversy, many players including Sourav Ganguly said that the matter should not be taken too far. "People make mistakes, let’s not go too far here. I am sure, .. whoever has done it will realise and come out a better person," former Indian Test captain Sourav Ganguly was quoted as saying. The BCCI has now asked the Supreme Court to appoint an ombudsman to look into the matter further.
