Shweta Tiwari issues statement on recent fiasco: It has been completely misconstrued which is saddening to see

Shweta Tiwari has found herself in a controversy over a recent statement she made during an event. The actress referred to God while talking about her underclothes. At the event, Shweta had mentioned how her 'bra measurements is being taken by 'bhagwaan'. While she addressed Sourabh as 'bhagwaan' because he has played mythological and godly characters, many have taken it out of context.

The said event took place at an event of an upcoming web show, which will feature Sourabh Raaj Jain, Shweta, along with Digangana Suryavanshi. Sourabh will be seen playing the role of a bra-fitter in the show, and hence, the remark from Shweta, did create quite a stir.

Now, an official statement of apology has been issued by Shweta Tiwari on the fiasco due her statement at the press conference.

It has come to my notice that a certain statement of mine referring to a colleague’s previous role has been taken out of context and has been misconstrued. When put in context, one will understand that the statement in reference to ‘Bhagwan’ was in context with Sourabh Raj Jain’s popular role of a deity. People associate character names to actors and hence, I used that as an example during my conversation with media.

She further mentioned,

However, it has been completely misconstrued which is saddening to see. As someone who has been a staunch believer of ‘Bhagwan’ myself, there is no way that I would intentionally or unintentionally say or do any such thing that would hurt sentiments by and large. I have, however, come to understand that when taken out of context, it has unintentionally hurt feelings of people. Please be assured that it has never been my intention to hurt anyone, with my words or actions. Hence, I would like to humbly apologise for the hurt that my the statement has unintentionally caused to a lot of people.
