Mary Kom Issues Tearful Apology After Backlash Over ‘Ek Rupya Bhi Nahi Kamaya’ Remark | Video

India’s olympic boxing legend MC Mary Kom recently gained eyeballs on social media when she lashed out on her husband saying, ‘ek rupiya bhi nahi kamaya’ which means he didn’t earn a single penny. 

Marry Kom, the most decorated athlete in India became a topic of discussion in every nook and corner of the family as she spoke about her personal life on talk show ‘Aap ki Adalat’. She accused her ex-husband Onler of financial fraud, alleging that he lived off her earnings and withdrew Rs10 lakhs without her consent and used to transfer worth crore properties under her brand name. She literally said,“Ladki ki kamai kha ke saath rehna hai is insaan ko. Iska koi successful career hi nahi hai — ek rupya bhi nahi kamaya,”

Soon after her remarks, her video went viral on social media. After several backlashes Marry Kom took to her instagram and offered an apology for misinterpreting her quotes as it was taken out of context. 

She said,”Mein ye clarify karna chahti hoon, ye nahi ki meri shaadi kabhi success hi nahi thi. Sab theek tha kafi saal tak. Lekin baad mein jab trust completely tut gaya tab cheezen badli. Iske bawajood yeh ki clarify karna chahti hoon, apne divorce ke baad, April 2025, mein mere khilaaf jo press release circulate hua uske baad bhi maine public ya media mein koi statement nahi diya. Mein hamesha dignity aur restraint ke saath khud ko conduct kar rahi hoon.”

She stressed that she never intended to hurt anyone or promote any negativity against any games as she was heard saying her husband used to play ‘gali football’ but never became successful in his life. She made her stance clear by saying that she loves football; and respects all athletes who rose from grassroots via discipline and hardwork citing examples of Sunil Chhetri and Baichung Bhutia. 

Moreover, she concluded her video by being apologetic to male fraternity as her remark for not earning a single penny was due to her personal conflicts with her husband and not the whole male community. She clarified her remarks were anguish due to her hidden pain which she was bearing since years that came out of depression.
