Bollywood actress Esha Gupta's support for a friend who said Alex Iwobi is a gorilla, has brought under The knives of social media users who tagged her racist, despite her position as an Arsenal Ambassador.

Esha, an avid Arsenal supporter and an ambassador of the English Premier League side, criticised Iwobi's performance in the club's recent game on a WhatsApp conversation with her friend which she later shared as an Instagram story.

"Solves our winger issues. I can't see that gorilla faced Iwobi running down the flank again.

He's so bad ya,'' read the screenshot, which according to IANS, was written by Esha's friend.

As a reply, Esha typed out: "Haha... I don't know why they don't bench him more."

Following the criticism on Instagram, Esha took to Twitter to apologise for her words.

She tweeted,

''Guys I am sorry you thought it was racist. Was bad on my part, being a sports lover. Sorry guys, forgive the stupidity.'

She later clarified her words during the Whatsapp conversation as out of frustration and that she failed to realise that it was directed towards racism.

She tweeted,

"It was us discussing our frustration during the game.sorry as I din realise it directed towards racism.laughed over the spur of the moment, which was the games result guys.been victim of racism myself before. But this is not something m proud of. It was a fault,sorry guys"

Racist Bleach.

Arsenal should first remove her as an Ambassador for the club,to show they are against racism. This is how Indians behave towards all blacks, and to think their suffering has no equal in the world.

It will not be well with the pig skin/face.

He can't run, he can't make tackles, he can't give a decent pass and he is terrible in front of goal.

This is how Indians behave towards all blacks, and to think their suffering has no equal in the world.

Arabs, Pakistanis, Indians, Bangladeshis are more racist than whites.
In India pregnant women are actually advised to drink coconut milk so that their children will be light skinned.
The sad thing is that inspite of all the contempt and disdain they have for black people, we still troop to their country for affordable quality healthcare because we will never prosper or develop since we keep electing dullards to preside over our affairs.
