Yeah right. Bahut achhi baat hai. Jaiye sadak pe morcha utar lijiye to protest this grave injustice.


A 43 year old woman got called aunty. Ab kya? The sky has fallen. The universe has ended. Ghor kalyug aa gaya.

Kalyug hi hai. Fangirling over everything else . Right wrong doesnt matter over love for celebs.

Honestly you speak a lot of words for someone who doesnt understand the basic word " CONTEXT".

Agar 43 yr old woman ko aunty bulana tha toh har din bulati......starting se bulati.....respect se bulati.

Agar 43 is the criteria , maybe baby/sunny/KK should also be called Uncle. Would definitely look very respectful.

I think we all should start giving our respects to the winner and call her Teja Aunty from now on. I am sure noone will mind.

It's all about mindset and intention.

I believe that even if she just said Aunty and not chadh gyi even then it was offensive .


Would Tejja call someone of her age Aunty ????

No.

She just used it bcoz Shamita is 10 years older than her.

Will Tejja mind if some 20 years old will call her Aunty

YES YES YES

She lied to Mahesh Manjrekar when he said you are the youngest she said YES ,jabki Prats and Simba were there .

I find it pityful that some one age shames another person because sooner or later you are also going to reach that age

Tejja acc to me is a dumb person anything else comes later

She compares calling Aunty and calling stupid (even her brother did that )

She compares calling other person's mom stupid to calling co contestants stupid /immature .

I m just glad i have never met a person like in real life warna dimaag ka Greek yogurt bann jata 😢

To the people asking this Question, If it was used with the intention to offend, then hell yes it's an offensive term.


It's like cursing someone with 'Maa Ki' or 'Behen ki' or 'ch***ya', all these are terms and legit terms so why is it an issue when used with the intent to insult?


Same with Aunty, instead of asking why was she offended with Aunty, why don't you ask why that sheltered dumbo used it to offend? And why did her apology have 50 variations before ending with no need to even apologise.

Teja is offended even if kk says she looks fat in this dress

Aunty is much worse

It's the intention that matters.


Bhikaari is not a bad word either. Bhikaari is a beggar, a panhandler. Bhikaaris are of two types - those who are professional / habitual freeloaders and those who are genuinely destitute.


But it all depends on the way you convey your message and project your emotions while conveying that message. Calling someone a "Bhikaari" is almost never seen in good light. It always has a negative connotation to it.


Age-shaming has become a norm around the world. No one likes being called old or older (although, I honestly believe being older is synonymous to being wise and more experienced at things in life). But those who use it loosely know full well the psychological and emotional implications that words has on others. It's as simple as that.

I agree. Baar baar bulana chahiye tha. Non stop. Agar woh irritate hoti, toh aur zyada bulana chahiye that.
