  "summary": "Actor Arjun Bijlani and his wife Neha Swami Bijlani have issued an apology after Neha’s recent appearance in a grey T-shirt sparked controversy among fans. The T-shirt featured a cartoon alongside text in Urdu referring to the Prophet Mohammed, which led to widespread criticism. In their apology, Arjun and Neha clarified that they were unaware of the meaning and significance of the writing on the T-shirt, as they received it as a gift from a fan. They expressed their sincere regret for any offense caused and emphasized that there was no intention to disrespect or harm religious sentiments. The couple reiterated their respect for all religions and faiths, and pledged to be more cautious in the future to avoid such unintentional mishaps. They requested the public to approach the matter with understanding, sensitivity, and compassion, urging everyone to refrain from spreading hate or targeting Neha and her family.",
