NCW summoned Elvish Yadav over a racist remark against Chum Darang

When Elvish Yadav made disparaging remarks about Chum Darang in his podcast, the dispute broke out. Everyone was astonished and incensed when he made fun of her race and name. Elvish also made offensive remarks about her and disparaged her connection to the movie Gangubai Kathiawadi.

In the video, he remarked, “Karan Veer ko pakka COVID tha kyunki Chum kisko pasand aati hai bhai, itna taste kiska kharab hota hai! Aur Chum ke toh naam mein hi ashleelta hai… Naam Chum aur kaam Gangubai Kathiawadi mein kiya hai.”

Later, Chum Darang responded angrily to the comments, denouncing Yadav’s actions. She conveyed her disappointment and emphasized the hurt that such remarks create in a statement.

On her Insta story, she wrote, “Disrespecting someone’s identity and name is not ‘fun.’ Mocking someone’s achievements is not ‘banter.’ It’s time we draw the line between humour and hate. What’s even more disappointing is that this wasn’t just about my ethnicity my hard work and a film backed by a visionary like Sanjay Leela Bhansali were also disrespected.”
