Swara Bhasker is one of those actresses in Bollywood who has never stepped back from voicing her opinion. Many times, she has been trolled on social media for her opinions. But she never gets bogged down by what people say. The ‘Veere Di Wedding’ actress has now spoken on television comedian and anchor, Trevor Noah for his jokes on Indo-Pak.
In ‘The Daily Show’ on Comedy Central, Trevor Noah said, “I hope India and Pakistan don’t go to war and but if they did go to war, it will be the entertaining war because the Indian soldiers would run out into the battlefield and say, “Time for you to die.” (Trevor mimicked the Indian soldiers in a satirical way).
This irked Swara and she took to her Twitter handle to slam the comedian. She gave a befitting reply saying ‘War isn’t funny or entertaining’. Here’s the video and Swara’s reply.
@Trevornoah @ComedyCentral a not racist & cruel version of this joke (IF Ur Writers was diverse)- India & Pak thankfully walking back from brink of war. Meanwhile, Bollywood looking to see how many dance numbers they can fit in2 movie version of this episode! Thanks @vedashastri pic.twitter.com/cjG3CBAVrd

@Trevornoah 1. War isn’t funny or entertaining. 2. Hindi is not gibberish. Ur stereotype of indo- pak is ignorant & racist. 3. Ur set smacks of essentialism & a patronising generalisation & is v #FirstWorld 4. Human lives were lost & at stake. SO disappointing! @ComedyCentral pic.twitter.com/c46TqB9btd
