Azhar Syndrome

In 2017, Prakhar Shrivastava who works for a YouTube based media house Capital TV cited Azhar Syndrome in reference to Indian Muslims who represent around 23% of India's population and still regard themselves as minority in a population of 1.35 billion. Prakhar's definition of Azhar Syndrome is based on involvement of former Indian Cricket team captain Mohammad Azhar-ud-din who infamously claimed muslim victimhood when caught into investigation of Match Fixing along with 3 other team player Manoj Prabhakar, Ajay Jadeja and Nikhil Chopra, all three Hindus.

Historically, the Azhar Syndrome was also coined by Le Grand Fromage, a writer who writes for First Global, a stock brokerage firm. In a newsletter dated dated March 12,2009, he writes, "This is precisely what The Azhar Syndrome is all about. Azhar is the kid from the slums in Slumdog Millionaire. He flew to LA for the Oscars, slept on clean sheets in an air-conditioned hotel room, for the first time...came to his Bombay slum home...and moaned to the press "It is so hot here, and the mosquitoes...I can't sleep"...A few nights in a clean hotel room, and the guy can't adjust back to the reality of his slum existence. And before LA happened, he was happily rolling in the mud all day, and sleeping soundly with mosquitoes and all, in precisely the same slum. Azhar enjoyed a 5 day bull market. And his life is ruined forever. India enjoyed a 5-year bull market. And a whole generation has been scarred for life."
