    Imran Khan and Sidhu had an old relationship as a cricketer. In such a situation, in 2018, he had gone to Pakistan to participate in the swearing-in ceremony of Imran Khan. Even it was fine, but people did not like his hugging Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Bajwa in that ceremony. And thus once again Sidhu's name became a point of controversies.
