The 34-year-old Punjabi siren's admiration for the Pakistani cricketer's generous gesture has sparked interest from fans and media outlets across the border. However, many have called the status fake saying she never posted anything like this, the post has invariably gone viral amid T20 World Cup in USA.
The 21-year-old pace sensation's touching encounter with the little fan has received widespread appreciation on social media, with many praising his down-to-earth demeanour and ability to connect with his followers.
Sonam Bajwa is known for her affection for numerous Pakistani superstars, notably Fawad Khan, whose charisma captivates millions beyond boundaries. Earlier this month, Bajwa confessed her love for the Pakistani hunk, calling him her 'forever crush.'
On the other hand, Naseem grabbed the headlines when he sparked dating rumours with Bollywood star Urvashi Rautela, who had posted about the fast bowler on her social media.
“I don’t know who Urvashi Rautela is. I only focus on my match. People usually send me videos but I have no idea. I have nothing special in me but I thank people who come to watch cricket and give a lot of respect," Naseem had said at the time.
The rumours were further fuelled by Urvashi sharing a fan-made video featuring her and Naseem on her Instagram handle.
