Shreya Kalra asked a question
After listening to Harshad, Shreya asked him, “Are you afraid of gay people?” Harshad started laughing at this. Then Shreya explained to him and said, “You think that every gay person will be interested in you, but it is not at all the case. In this way, you are looking at the entire community from the same perspective, which is not right.”
People divided on social media
As soon as the video of this conversation went viral on social media, the debate started. Many people accused Harshad Chopra of making homophobic remarks. Some users wrote that the actor is trying to justify his thinking. At the same time, some people defended him and said that his words were not being seen in their full context and only a part of the video had been made viral.
Such a dispute has happened before also
Earlier in the show, contestant Sufi Motiwala had also accused Varun Yadav of making homophobic comments. Sufi had said that his way of walking, sitting and speaking was repeatedly made fun of, which hurt him. Although Varun later apologized, Sufi said that just saying “sorry” does not make everything okay.
