Varun Dhawan Apologizes On Twitter Over His ‘Nepotism Rocks’ Comment At IIFA, Check Out How Twitterati Responded
Ever since Queen’s actress Kangana Ranaut has made some sensational comments on Nepotism in Bollywood, there was no going back. The first and most prominent incident of discussing Nepotism took place when she appeared in director Karan Johar’s ‘Koffee With Karan’ show.
And from then, there is no going back, she spoke about the same in a couple of interviews. Various Bollywood actors commented about the same and what not? It has been the talk of the town since the day one.
but, the recent IIFA 2017 event that took place in New York has left some surprising news. It is seen that the event hosts Karan Johar and Saif Ali Khan along with actor Varun Dhawan has made some annoying statements and even ended up chanting ‘Nepotism Rocks’.
These comments made by them infuriated the audience and people on social media, who ended up slamming the same blue and black.
As it is well known that these three men of Bollywood have inherited the legacy of their star parents. While Karan Johar is carrying forward the legacy of renowned filmmaker Yash Johar, Saif Ali Khan is the son of yesteryear diva Sharmila Tagore, and Varun Dhawan is director-producer David Dhawan’s younger son.
Things went out of hand when the three of them tried to take advantage of their nepotism and take a jibe at Kangana Ranaut. This went too far than needed and people on Twitter went berserk over the three.
Meanwhile, it is Varun Dhawan who first publically apologized for hurting anyone with his act at IIFA, followed by Karan, who in an interview with NDTV took the responsibility of the act calling it solely his idea. While talking to a popular media channel, Karan went saying: “What we said was meant to be a joke, which I think has been misplaced, misunderstood and I think it went wrong. I regret it.”
I express my apology and regret .. I am extremely sorry if I have offended or hurt anyone with that act..

Though Varun’s tweet sounded much sensible, Twitterati didn’t stop trolling the actor for his utter words.

Still Varun is just juvenile in terms of acting & he totally sucks whereas Kangana is a charm.

He appologised be coz of the backslash. You think they actually mean it? They need to keep an image to ensure ticket sales right.

There should be no ‘if’. Maybe the better thing to do would be to directly apologise to Kangana for such a cheap shot at her.
