One word - CONTEXT


Context is important. Teja said it when Shamita was giving a massage to her so called BF . She said " Aunty chad gyi " .

FYI its not just age shaming but sl*t shaming too.


If you arent able to understand dt , maybe you dont want to understand . Take your rose tinted glasses off and then see


Didn't shamite sl*t shame Moose in OTT? Shamita now suddenly is righteous?

If it is a term used in jest, there's no problem in the world. I guess I am not seeing the problem at all. Is it a language thing? That it is offensive in Hindi. Because let me assure, it is not offensive in English.

this term in English is not used for non relatives….ppl use second names to talk to elders …even kids don’t call neighbours aunty..they call Mrs abc Mrs xyz


rakhi called teja leech etc…did teja have the guts to call her aunty even in fun way???

Aunty is not a bad word .... "Aunty climbed another man " is a terrible phrase.


It means to be precise "You are so old, you cannot have sexual desires or you need to be in submissive position under a man"


This is exactly what Teja meant for Shamita or for each woman of the county older than her..........



No twisting words....this is EXACTLY what it is!

Exactly it is hindi language that has co-opted the word "aunty" to somehow make it seem offensive. In the original language English - Aunty is not even remotely remotely remotely offensive - not in any context to be honest.

Didn't Shamita publicize the underwear of Moose etc. to other men and said they were almost doing p*rn and showing boobs all the time.


How is Shamita doodh ki dhuli?

So she is the girlfriend of a man who humiliates and sl*t shames women on horrifyingly insulting terms.


How does Shamita have a leg to stand on in any way? How can she complain when she and her own indulge in such terrible behavior?
