New Delhi: Comedy show ‘Comedy Nights Bachao’ is quite popular for their humor and its roast format.
We often see the artists poking at the celebrity guests of the show and making fun of them.
However, things turned nasty after comedian Siddharth Jadhav, reportedly, made racist comments on the show.
It happened while ‘Housefull 3’ team - Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez and Lisa Haydon came on ‘Comedy Nights Bachao’ to promote their movie.
Everything was going smooth, but Akshya Kumar lost his cool after Jadhav referred Lisa as a kangaroo in reference to her Australian genes and later also a black African.
Indeed, this incident grabbed a lot of negative attention for the show. It was reported that superstar Akshay Kumar was furious over the issue and even pushed the comedian for uttering the racist words for the Housefull 3 actress.
However, on the contrary, Adaa Khan, a member of ‘Comedy Nights Bachao’ has denied the incident, claiming no racist comments were made on the show.
“No racist comments were made on Lisa or anyone. I don’t remember anyone uttering the word, African. It was a prank. All is well,” Adaa told an entertainment portal.
So far, there are no comments from Akshay or Lisa over the issue.
Helmed by Sajid-Farhad, ‘Housefull 3’ also features Abhishek Bachchan and Nargis Fakhri and will hit the theatres on June 03.
