Oscars 2022: Varun Dhawan, Neetu Kapoor REACT to Will Smith slapping Chris Rock

Will Smith is hitting the headlines today after he lost his cool during the 94th Academy Awards ceremony on the presenter Chris Rock and he slapped him for making a joke about Will’s wife Jada Pinkett Smith. Rock made a joke about the hairstyle of Smith’s wife Jada that referenced the movie G.I. Jane in which actress Demi Moore shaved her head. Reportedly, Jada has alopecia, which is a disease that causes hair loss.

Now, Bollywood celebrities like Varun Dhawan, Neetu Kapoor, Sophie Choudry, Shweta Basu Prasad reacted to Will and Chris’s controversy on social media.

Check it out:

Neetu Kapoor wrote on her Instagram story: “And they say women can never control their emotions…”

Varun Dhawan also reacted and said: “Wow, didn’t expect that also @ChrisRock has a chin”

Sophie also took to her Twitter and shared her views on Will Smith smacking Chris and tweeted: “Violence is never the way but cracking jokes about someone’s medical condition should not be acceptable either. This was supposed to be a career high for one of my favourite artists for a superb performance. Instead he’ll be remembered for this crazy incident? #willsmith #Oscars”
