TIL Desk Bollywood/ Choreographer Raghav Juyal’s controversial comments on dance reality show ‘Dance Deewane 3’ have landed him in the eye of a storm on social media. He has now shared a video as a clarification on the questions being raised on his comments.
The issue became so serious that even Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has criticised Raghav. Host Raghav in the video was seen using words like ‘Momo’, ‘Ching Chong’ and ‘gibberish Chinese’ that were deemed objectionable. Later he shared a video clarifying his comments and apologised.
In the video he captioned: ‘Clarifying the misunderstanding To all my NORTH EASTERN friends.’ He shared the entire incident and referred to the contestant, Gunjan Sinha that she likes to speak Chinese, which was largely “gibberish” and it was her hobby.
He also added saying that if you want to understand what exactly happened watch all the episodes. She called it her talent and during the last episodes of the show he tried to speak to her in a similar way and it was just done jokingly.
He also mentioned that he has always been vocal on these issues. Making an apology, he mentioned that he never meant to hurt anyone’s sentiments and if it happened he felt sorry about it. But social media is flooded with comments from those who are criticising him and tagging him as racist.
