Khatron Ke Khiladi 13: Soundous Moufakir SLAMS Karanvir Bohra Over Misogynist Remark; He Responds With Clarification
'Khatron Ke Khiladi 13' candidates have been in the news. One of Soundous Moufakir's videos lately caught people's attention. She related a recent incident that occurred at an award ceremony. She attended the event and was given a prize. The woman went up to the podium and delivered her winning speech in Hindi. The host then remarked that she too deserved recognition for her speech. Karanvir Bohra was then questioned by the host, "Doesn't she?"
‘You take this award’ Karanvir said. 'Aise kaise baat kar rahe?' Soundous reacted negatively to it. Post about the incident that Soundous published on social media.
She released the event's video online and stated, “Take this award home” says karanvirbohra to the host, objectifying me. This is a common objectification faced by multiple women inside this industry and outside, all over the world. So let me just say this - l'm not an award, I'm not a trophy, I'm not SOMETHING you can just joke about taking home. The way men are always ready to demean a woman's achievements and their proud moments by passing sexist, misogynistic comments disgusts me and I wonder when this will stop.”
Karanvir continued without pausing and promptly clarified. He posted many videos on social media explaining the situation in detail. He asserted that the remark wasn't directed at her and that he has never objectified anyone. He added that if it had been his error, he would have apologised, but Soundous misinterpreted and made some remarks.
Karanvir Bohra reacts, “Apparently this lady (Soundous Moufakir) made a statement about me after a week of me ‘making a remark on her’ what she thought. But I am really glad that this lady put up that video because if you see it, the host told her, ‘aapki hindi itni achhi hai, apko award milna chahiye, hai na Karan bhai?’ He addressed it to me. My answer was to him, ‘Tu ghar leja award’. The idea was it was sarcasm that don’t flirt with her on stage. Then he said, ‘Arre main isko ghar le jau?’ So that was his comment. So if she felt bad, she should have felt bad about his statement. I never told her.”
“When something like this would happen, I would genuinely say sorry. Naturally, if anyone is hurt because of my statement, it is my responsibility to take onus of it and apologise and clear the matter. But in this case, I am really sorry but I am not sorry because I didn’t say anything to you. The host objectified you. So you misunderstood that and yes, your hindi is not that clear and you don’t understand it clearly, so you need to learn Hindi. So if you want to make it another post or story, please make it for the host. Thank you very much, may God bless you.”
