Karanvir Bohra reacts to Soundous Moufakir’s allegation of objectifying her, says ‘I am not sorry’

Karanvir Bohra and Khatron Ke Khiladi 13 contestant Soundous Moufakir recently indulged in a massive fight on social media. Soundous called out Karanvir for passing a objectionable comment during the award show. Reacting to her claims, Karanvir has now shared a video clarifying what exactly happened.

What happened at the award function?

Recently at an award function, Soundous was receiving an award for her achievements. As she went on to speak in Hindi, the host teased her by telling she deserves an award for that too. In between speaking to her, the host then turned to Karanvir and asked “Doesn’t she”. In response to which Karanvir shouted, ‘Tu Ye Award Ghar Le Jaa”. Irked by Karanvir’s statement, Soundous responded by saying, “Aap aise kaise baat karsakte ho?”

A day after the incident took place, Soundous took to her Instagram stories and expressed displeasure. She shared the video and wrote, “Take this award home” says @karanvirbohra to the host, objectifying me. This is a common objectification faced by multiple women inside this industry and outside, all over the world. So let me just say this – l’m not an award, I’m not a trophy, I’m not SOMETHING you can just joke about taking home. The way men are always ready to demean a woman’s achievements and their proud moments by passing sexist, misogynistic comments disgusts me and I wonder when this will stop.”

Karanvir Bohra clears the air

Karanvir did not stop and immediately gave a clarification. He took to social media and shared a few videos where he explained about the event clearly. He said, “Apparently this lady (Soundous Moufakir) made a statement about me after a week of me ‘making a remark on her’ what she thought. But I am really glad that this lady put up that video because if you see it, the host told her, ‘aapki hindi itni achhi hai, apko award milna chahiye, hai na Karan bhai?’ He addressed it to me. My answer was to him, ‘Tu ghar leja award’. The idea was it was sarcasm that don’t flirt with her on stage. Then he said, ‘Arre main isko ghar le jau?’ So that was his comment. So if she felt bad, she should have felt bad about his statement. I never told her.”

The actor further stated that if he had genuinely said something wrong, he would have taken onus of it. He mentioned, “When something like this would happen, I would genuinely say sorry. But in this case, I am really sorry but I am not sorry because I didn’t say anything to you. The host objectified you. So you misunderstood that and yes, your hindi is not that clear and you don’t understand it clearly, so you need to learn Hindi.”
