Harbhajan Singh has strongly criticized the decision to make the video of the slap incident viral after 18 years. He stated that there was a negative intention behind it, suggesting it was done for ulterior motives. Singh believes that the incident, which had been forgotten by many, is now being brought back to public attention. The video, featuring the altercation between Harbhajan Singh and Sreesanth, originated from the first IPL season in 2008, following a match victory for the Punjab Kings.
