What Did Aishwarya Mohanraj Say In The Viral Clip?

The clip began trending after a social media user shared it online and criticised the content of the joke.

The user wrote, "She is saying that when her brother was born, her mother wanted to cut his private part. She started crying because she couldn't. Now she said that when she has a son in the future, she'll fulfill her mother's dream."

The same user further added, "A man will never even think about making such a statement about his daughter. But feminist women these days are so blind in their hatred towards men that they won't even spare a child. Is this empowering? Why are people laughing at this? Talking about hurting male babies is comedy, but even consensual sex-related topics can get you fired."

Social Media Divided Over The Viral Video

The resurfaced video prompted a wave of reactions online, with users expressing sharply contrasting views.

One user wrote, "Why are you targeting her and not amazon for hosting such shows? do it. you will know the wrath of amazon then. it is easy to clip few minutes of shows from god knows when and then try to milk views out of it."

Another commented, "So every perv psycho can become a stand up comedian by making jokes on male/female genitals??"

A third user said, "Not just A baby. She’s saying it’s about her OWN baby. And we’re worried about preserving natural resources for this generation? "

Meanwhile, another reaction read, "These comedians are horrible, not even a joke."

Although the clip is several years old and originates from Amazon Prime Video's Comicstaan, it has gained renewed attention due to the ongoing controversy involving comedian Pranit More and remarks made during a crowdwork performance in Gurugram.
