Salman's mocking of Upen's accent was very disrespectful.. | DTN p.21 - Page 4

I'm from the UK and cringe every time Upen opens his mouth. His English is just as bad as his Hindi.

He sounds like a typical Brit-Asian Londoner.

Wow. Ppl getting personal.

Come on he was just teasing him. Why make an issue over small things. We all have imitated someone in our life, haven't we ?

I am not making an issue. I am posting my opinion on something that occurred on the show which I have every right to.

This is how Lallu bhai insults people, through his crass, third-class toilet humour, you see, according to his fans, he is always joking, when he mocks someone, he's only joking, when he bullies people, he is only joking, one wonders whether his life is just one big joke?

And quite amusing that Lallu bhai is making fun of someone's accent when he himself puts on a fake American accent, stupid twat. 😆

So what if Upen has failed in Bollywood.

Gautam has failed to get into Bollywood aswell even though he has been auditioning.

🤢

Exactly. Failure in Bollywood or not. Bad actor or not. What does it have to do with a person's accent?

So now mimicking someone is mocking?!

Not sure if it was disrespectful but was not funny at all. It did not evoke any laughter from me. His jokes on upen are getting stale now.

*king*

Yeah it wasn't funny.

But discussion is about Upen . Not Gautam.How many auditions has Gautam given and for which films?

They make fun of desi accent everywhere in the west too. There are entire shows, sitcoms in the western media where they poke fun at desi accent and cultural eccentricities :

The big bang show

Simpsons

Eastenders

Mind your language

Citizen Khan

East is East & the sequel West is West.

And it's all in good humor like Salman did, its not intended to be malicious. Nothing to get upset over.

lol, when Jade Goody, Danielle O'Lloyd, and Jo O'Meara bullied Shilpa Shetty in Big Brother UK, and even mocked her Indian accent, it created a huge controversy, they were condemned, and censured, and brought to tears after the show was over.

Here, we have the host himself mocking and bullying people, only in India do they allow someone like Lallu bhai to get away with murder, no pun intended. 😉 😆
