At Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's pre-wedding celebrations in Jamnagar, Gujarat, there was a notable performance by Salman, Shah Rukh, and Aamir, who lit up the stage with their rendition of the hit song "Naatu Naatu" from RRR.
During this electrifying performance, Shah Rukh Khan invited Ram Charan to join them. However, a playful comment by Shah Rukh Khan, where he jokingly referred to Ram Charan as 'idli,' has drawn criticism online.
This incident sparked reactions on social media, with some condemning Shah Rukh Khan for insensitivity.
Zeba Hassan, Upasana’s makeup artist, expressed her disappointment on Instagram, highlighting the disrespect towards Ram Charan. She mentioned leaving the event due to such disrespect.
Social media users also pointed out the broader issue of Bollywood's tendency to belittle South Indian stars, even in seemingly light-hearted situations.
While acknowledging that Shah Rukh Khan's remark may have been intended as a joke, many felt it was inappropriate and caused discomfort. Despite Shah Rukh Khan and Ram Charan's longstanding friendship, this recent incident missed the mark.
Shah Rukh Khan should understand that casual references to South Indian culture, such as using the term "idli," can perpetuate stereotypes and cause discomfort and embarrassment, even if unintentional.
