Will Smith still have to 'personally apologize' to Chris Rock for the Oscars slap?

Smith's visit to India was announced by an insider who spoke to Page Six about Smith's Oscars incident. The source said, “Will’s ‘spiritual trip’ to India to practice yoga and meditation seems cynical and ridiculous given that he did not personally apologize to the one person he assaulted in front of millions. No amount of Namastes will make up for that." “
