Vivek Oberoi finally apologized a day after and deleted his election meme that was termed 'crass' by many and which featured Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's personal life using it to explain the difference between Opinion Poll, Exit Poll and Result. Her picture with Salman had 'Opinion Poll' written over it, with Vivek Oberoi had 'Exit Poll' written and finally with husband Abhishek Bachchan & daughter Aaradhya Bachchan that said 'Result'. While the 'PM Narendra Modi' actor was trending all day with celebrities like Sonam Kapoor, Jwala Gutta & social media users bashing him for his disgusting tweet, there was also a war ensued  between the Vivek Oberoi fans and Salman Khan fans.

And while we just showed you how Salman reacting to Vivek's meme at media interaction on Tuesday did not pay much heed to the latter, his fans find a rather better way to respond to the 'Company' actor's actions.

Salman had recently tweeted a picture from his 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam' shooting days that features Aishwarya Rai Bachchan too but her face is cropped out. Salman chose this picture to promote Sanjay Leela Bhansali's niece Sharmin Segal's upcoming debut film 'Malaal' produced by Bhansali  himself and which also marks Jaaved Jaafrey's son Meezaan Jaaferi's debut in Bollywood. The picture shows the little Sharmin cutting cake and feeding it to 'HDDCS' director and her uncle Bhansali. Salman with the red badhej dupatta around his neck is seated beside Sharmin while Aishwarya standing wearing the same peach colored lehenga, the attired they both wore for the iconic 'Aankhon Ki Gustakhiyan' song.

Salman had captioned this pic he posted two days before Vivek's tweet, with- "Just like that, it's time now to see this beautiful little Sharmin bloom on the silver screen in her debut film, Malaal. May this new journey bring you all luck and love bit.ly/MalaalTrailer @sharminsegal #MalaalTrailer @bhansali_produc @TSeries".

And the picture is now being circulated by his fans to hit at Vivek who did not hesitate a moment before sharing the past life of his ex-girlfriend in a very distasteful meme.

This was indeed a wise gesture by Salman who shares an ugly past with the actress. The mother of  7 yr old daughter now, had accused Salman of abusing her and Vivek had even held a press conference revealing that Salman had threatened him. Aishwarya's stories with Vivek and Salman is not a mystery anymore but taking a dig at her through a meme, writing "Haha" with it was completely condemn-worthy and that's what the fans did.

Even 'National Commission for Women'(NCW) had issued a notice to the actor demanding a satisfactory explanation over it.

Vivek had also reacted to the same few hours after he posted the tweet and he had then said that he would say sorry if he's proven wrong. He even reenacted his years old holding-both-ears apology act he did during an award show to apologize to Salman who was seated in the audience then. He said "mai sorry bolne mei expert hun, aapne dekhi hongi pictures aur memes mere dono kaan pakde huye!". He said it was just a small meme and did not use foul language or was abusive.
