Cricketer Yuvraj Singh was left fuming on Tuesday when his fiancee and actress Hazel Keech was denied money by Western Union Money Transfer on the grounds that her name didn't sound Hindu enough.
Mr Peeyush Sharma @WesternUnion in Jaipur is the most racist person ive met and refused to give money because my name is not "Hindu" enough

Reacting to this ridiculous behaviour, Hazel tweeted, "Mr Peeyush Sharma @WesternUnion in Jaipur is the most racist person ive met and refused to give money because my name is not "Hindu" enough."

"Im sickened by the attitude of these people,in front of my HINDU mother + my muslim friend," she added further.
