4 years into his relationship with Jasmin Bhasin, TV actor Aly Goni faced backlash for not chanting 'Ganpati Bappa Morya' at a Ganesh Chaturthi puja. Videos of Goni staying silent during chants went viral, sparking online criticism. In response, Goni told FilmyGyan it was his first time at such an event. He explained, 'It's not allowed in my religion, we don't do pooja. We offer namaz.' Goni stressed he respects all religions but follows his own beliefs. He also clarified that an old video of Jasmin in a burqa at Abu Dhabi's Sheikh Zayed Mosque was misinterpreted, stating they bought abayas to enter the mosque.
