Azhar irked with question on match-fixing, walks out of an interview

Looks like his past has come back to haunt Mohammad Azharuddin. The former Indian captain has been touring the country, and foreign places, to promote his biopic with the film's cast and crew, including Emraan Hashmi and director Tony D'Souza. Though the cricketer has been having fun during these tours, he always seems wary of questions related to the match-fixing scandal that led to the imposement of lifetime ban on him.So, when one of the news channels asked him that one big question - did he take the money or not? - a furious Azhar walked off.

A source says, "Though the ban imposed by BCCI in 2000 was lifted by the Andhra Pradesh High Court in 2012, Azhar is always uncomfortable answering questions related to it. When he was asked about his involvement in the scam, he got irked and left the show mid way. Even though 'Azhar's team asked him to return to the interview, he refused to come back. Azhar had even said that he won't be part of other channels' shows because he doesn't want to face these questions again."
