Randeep Hooda makes ‘very dirty joke’ on Mayawati: Actor receives flak on social media for sexist and casteist remark (Video)
In a video shared online, Hooda claims he's going to make a "dirty joke" and sets up a premise of Mayawati walking down a street with twins (aged a few years apart).
New Delhi: Bollywood actor Randeep Hooda is facing anger for cracking a ‘very dirty joke’ on former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati.
Randeep said, “I think I will tell a very dirty joke. It’s a sex position for God’s sake. We are taking too seriously.”
The former co-star of Alia Bhatt continued, “There was Miss Mayawati. She was walking along the street with two kids, two boys. There was a man, like our man here (pointing to an audience member). He asked, “Are they twins?” (Mayawati) said, “No, no. He’s four, he’s eight.” He (man) said, “I can’t believe someone has been there twice”.”
Randeep’s ‘very dirty joke’ about Mayawati left the audience in splits. But activists did not find his joke funny. Kavita Krishnan wrote, “Not a “joke” @RandeepHooda. You notice no one makes “jokes” saying a male politician is too ugly to f***? You are doing what casteist, misogynist, insecure turds do when confronted with women whose strength they fear: attack the woman as unattractive.”
Not a “joke” @RandeepHooda . You notice no one makes “jokes” saying a male politician is too ugly to f***? You are doing what casteist, misogynist, insecure turds do when confronted with women whose strength they fear: attack the woman as unattractive. https://t.co/F4WsmDLbCw
