He called him Gora.

Manu is an illiterate man. He doesn't know what it means to be educated on such issues.

Please stop being a little biased hypocrite, because at this point in time, Bani the cheap disgusting gundi has said much worser things. If anything Bani needs to be thrown out asap by your logic.

I want Vidya Balan to be chargesheeted and behind bars for being outright racist and offending and outright annoying, not to mention pathetic against Katrina first. That too in front of Salman! How dare she imitate that accent! Like, how dare! 😔 😔

How can such racist behaviour be allowed on TV? 😔

Edit: I also propose nationwide censorship against all bollywood songs with the word "gori" in them. If the female actor in these songs happen to be gori, then the film's producer, the singer, lyricist etc will warrant arrest.

Most importantly, Salman almost always has white-skinned female dancers whom he refers to by multiple appendages. They are often racist, male chauvinist and cheap 😔😔. I want Big Boss to intervene on this as well.

I would also like a professor from JNU to educate the classes, the masses, the Bigg Boss in-housers and out-housers on reverse racism.

Finally, put Manu behind bars for making the inmates and us laugh heartily with his extremely offensive stand-up 😔

Also, can we have Bigg Boss on the curriculum for an undergrad university course titled Racism in India: Goras, Goris and Fair & Lovely? 😳


Dude imitating and mocking are two different things. That's the two difference you need to apprehend first of all in order to understand what can constitute as racist.
Even Fair and Lovely is disgusting imo

Racism is a big deal, and a big word, to be applied so casually to situations. People of various races often share the same accent, because the latter depends heavily on the region most time is spent in. Mocking of Jason's accent can be found in bad taste, sure, but it was not racist in the least. Jason was not demeaned for/because of his different race and color.

And the Vidya example is a good one - she didn't merely imitate Katrina's accent - the fact that she did, mocks Katrina by default. But neither did I find that racist. Indian, Chinese, and many other accents are mocked around the world - can be in bad taste depending on the situation, but not necessarily racist.

I agree with the Original Poster. The things they said were outright racist. Imagine an Indian going on a foreign reality show and being referred to as a 'Brownie' or something such. He also said something along the lines of woh tan ho jaayega making fun of his skin colour. In any other country, this would be deemed downright racist but India mein sab chalta hai and there are people here actually defending this kind of behaviour. Everyone standing with Manu and laughing along are equally at fault. Uneducated people.

How can you call people uneducated for having a different opinion? You can receive education and still not agree with the popular opinion. And that would be BECAUSE you would be educated and know how to make up your own mind. People who supported Manu or didn't find it offensive have given their reasons. If you have received enough education and can think clearly then why not counter those reasons? Instead of throwing insults and generalising like "uneducated" people do.

While criticizing something, there are time when members tend to go overboard and use certain derogatory and downright offensive words which shouldn't be used for any contestant/member. Please remember that any derogatory references, or name calling any person [contestant/member] goes against the IF CoC as well as the forum rules, and strict action will be taken against those who indulge in it.
