‘Karan Johar Shoving It Down…’: Suniel Shetty Weighs In On Hardik Pandya And KL Rahul Koffee With Karan Controversy
Cricketers KL Rahul and Hardik Pandya's 'Koffee With Karan' episode caused an uproar on social media.
New Delhi: A couple of years after cricketers KL Rahul and Hardik Pandya's 'Koffee With Karan' episode caused an uproar on social media, Suniel Shetty who is KL Rahul’s father-in-law recently commented on the matter. Suniel claimed that the approach of Koffee With Karan encourages "kids to get excited and say stuff."
“You know when that interview of him (KL Rahul) and Hardik (Pandya) came… Hardik probably got carried away. But when you have an anchor (Karan Johar) shoving it down your throat, what do you do? So it is the format of the show (Koffee With Karan), you get kids excited and they say stuff and then Bollywood is being banned," Suniel told Ranveer Allahbadia on his podcast The Ranveer Show.
“So I think we all, you as an anchor, me as a guest, we all need to be responsible because if you ask me a question that I feel I can’t answer doesn’t mean (I should feel) that I am inferior to anybody. When that happens, that’s when things go wrong, and it should never go wrong. You should have the guts to say things as they are and as they should be,” he added.
Bolly Blinds N Gossip recently posted a video of Suniel talking about Koffee With Karan and Karan Johar as a host on Reddit, and many people appeared to agree with his viewpoint.

Following their appearance on the sixth season of the Karan Johar-hosted show's 'Koffee With Karan' in 2019, some of the cricketers' comments were deemed to be "sexist." They apologised to the public and to their own teammates, but the BCCI penalised them and they were dropped from a three-match ODI series against Australia. At the time, filmmaker Karan Johar also expressed his guilt over the consequences the players had to endure.
