  • Farah Khan's latest comment has left netizens upset and disappointed. Recently, the filmmaker-choreographer, who is currently seen in 'Celebrity MasterChef', talked about the festival of Holi and called it a festival of 'chhapri' people.

Farah Khan, a well-known Bollywood choreographer and director, recently sparked controversy with a comment she made about the Hindu festival of Holi. During a casual conversation, she remarked, "Holi kabhi nahi khelti, because I don't like colors," which translates to "I never play Holi because I don't like colors." This statement led to a significant backlash on social media, with many netizens accusing her of disrespecting and undermining the cultural significance of Holi, a festival celebrated with colors, water, and communal joy. Critics argued that her comment was not only dismissive but also reflected a lack of appreciation for the festival's traditions. However, some supporters defended her, suggesting that personal preferences should not be conflated with disrespect towards cultural practices. The incident highlights the ongoing debate about individual expressions versus cultural sensitivity in public figures.
