Widespread YouTuber and former Bigg Boss OTT champion Elvish Yadav is as soon as once more within the highlight for the improper causes. This time, he faces extreme backlash for making derogatory remarks about actress and Bigg Boss 18 finalist Chum Darang throughout a podcast dialog. A snippet of the dialogue has gone viral, sparking widespread outrage on social media.
The controversial clip options Yadav conversing with fellow Bigg Boss 18 contestant Rajat Dalal. Whereas discussing Chum Darang, Yadav made an insensitive remark, saying, “Karan Veer will need to have been affected by COVID as a result of who of their proper thoughts could be concerned with Chum? Nobody might presumably have such horrible style! Even her title itself is indecent… Chum, and he or she has acted in Gangubai Kathiawadi—what a mixture!”
The remarks had been met with fast criticism on-line. Netizens referred to as his phrases crude and disrespectful, with many expressing their disappointment in his habits. One person on X (previously Twitter) remarked, “Third-rate dialog by a bitter particular person. Completely shameful,” whereas one other wrote, “Vile folks make vile statements.”
Dealing with the backlash, Elvish addressed the controversy in his vlog. Acknowledging the outrage, he admitted to deleting the contentious phase from his podcast. “Maine Chum ke upar kuch bol rakhha tha. Maine kaha, Most important bola ya nahi, hatao, mujhe negativity chahiye hello nahi. Agar kisiko kharab lag raha hain mere bolne se, toh bhai, wo half meine take away kar diya,” he defined. (I had stated one thing about Chum. Then I assumed, whether or not I stated it or not, simply take away it. I don’t need any negativity. If anybody felt unhealthy about what I stated, I’ve eliminated that half.)
He additional addressed accusations of racism stemming from his remark, clarifying that his intention was to mock Karan Veer Mehra’s style in ladies, to not make any racial insinuations. “Second factor, kitne bewakoof log hain jinko ye samajh mein nahi aa raha. Wo log bol raha hain Elvish ne Covid bol diya, so Elvish is relating Chinese language with Chum… Karan might need Covid since he’s misplaced his sense of style and scent—that’s why he likes Chum,” he stated. Elvish added that he doesn’t endorse or assist racist remarks in any manner.
Regardless of his clarification, the criticism continues to mount. Critics argue that making enjoyable of somebody’s title, particularly on a public platform, displays poorly on his character. In the meantime, supporters declare his phrases had been taken out of context.
