The fear caused by the outbreak of Coronavirus has gripped the entire nation. Everyone is worried and people are blindly sharing remedies for prevention of attack of this deadly virus and amidst all this, we had Arshad Warsi sharing his own remedy to stop the outbreak.
The actor shared a hilarious meme stating how the virus can be stopped from spreading. However, his joke backfired and he was called racist by the Twitterati. Wondering what the joke was? Read on to know.
Sharing a meme, the ‘Munna Bhai’ actor wrote, “My friend just sent me this very valuable info…” The actor’s meme is nothing but a scene straight out of his all-time hit film ‘Munna Bhai M.B.B.S‘. In it, we can see Arshad and his sidekicks kidnapping a Chinese tourist. We are pretty sure the actor didn’t think through before sharing the meme and soon the netizens slammed him. Some even labelled him as a racist.

This is racist actually! Everywhere around people are putting notices to not let the Chinese in which is very absurd.

It’s a good scene from an epic movie. But in the context here, you do know that It’s racist. Right?

However, there were some users who came out in support of the actor and wrote, “People have become so sensitive nowadays. can’t take a joke on social media, but pay in thousands to sit and listen to abusive bullshit and call it a comedy(sic).”

On the work front, Arshad was last seen in ‘Pagalpanti’ and ‘Total Dhamaal’. And he is all set to reunite with Sanjay Dutt for an untitled comedy flick.
