Rumoured Ex-Girlfriend Esha Gupta Slams Hardik Pandya For His Comments On Karan Johar's Show

Bollywood director, writer, and producer, Karan Johar owns many feathers on his hat, but above all is the title of the host that he is most proud of. After all, his popular celebrity chat show, Koffee With Karan is the guilty pleasure for so many Bollywood buffs. And this season, it saw some of the most interesting pairs together onscreen. While many secrets got spilled on the koffee couch, the episode with Indian cricketers went a little too far.

Cricketer, Hardik Pandya’s sexist statements created havoc, which ended up with him and KL Rahul being banned by the BCCI for the ODI series against Australia. Now, here is the latest update on the much-talked-about controversy. Hardik’s rumoured ex-girlfriend, Esha Gupta slammed him openly. At an event, when she was asked about her opinion on Hardik’s comments, the actress first said, “Who is the one who told you, he is my friend?”

She further commented on the Koffee controversy, and said, “Firstly, women should not compare themselves with men. We are the best in every respect. I don’t want anyone to feel bad, but why don’t you give birth to a child? We suffer from periods five days every month and even then we have to dance, go to an office, and take care of the children. When you can do all this, you become superior.” (Also Read: Boney Kapoor Sues Priya Varrier's Film, Sridevi Bungalow Which Refers To Sridevi's Bathtub Drowning )

After the episode’s telecast, the controversy got heated and Hardik posted a public apology on his Instagram handle, and wrote, “After reflecting on my comments on Koffee with Karan, I would like to apologise to everyone concerned who I may have hurt in a way. Honestly, I got a bit carried away with the nature of the show. In no way did I mean to disrespect of hurt anyone’s sentiments. Respect.” Check out the post here:

In his tweet, he wrote, “It is time the BCCI decides to take corrective steps for cricketers who talk rubbish on public platforms. Hardik Pandya was a disgrace to the cricket community the way he spoke on Koffee with Karan show. He has insulted the women and also made a racist remark.” (You May Also Like: Taimur Ali Khan's Blue Dragon Tattoo At Bestie, Ranvir's Third Birthday Is Adorable Beyond Words)
