Annu Kapoor Clarifies 'Dudhiya Badan' Comment on Tamannaah Bhatia Amid Social Media Trolling

Veteran Bollywood actor Annu Kapoor has recently clarified a comment he made regarding Tamannaah Bhatia, while he stated that there was no ill intention behind his statement; rather, it was solely meant as praise for Tamannaah. Recently, Annu Kapoor spoke openly about his life and various experiences, addressing the specific comment for which he faced significant trolling.

The Context Behind the 'Aaj Ki Raat' Remark

In a recent appearance on Siddharth Kannan's YouTube channel, Annu Kapoor provided a clarification for his comment. He said, 'Last year, I had shows in America. I told my creative team that the contestants are good, so suggest a googly-type song, while then they played the song "Aaj Ki Raat". I said the music is very good. They said the song is very popular but the contestants won't be able to perform well on it, so it can be made into a googly-type song because the "mukhda" doesn't seem complete. I asked them to show me the video. I saw the video and said she's dancing very well. ' On top of that, Annu Kapoor explained how language became a barrier in his comment and led to it being misunderstood.

Language Barriers and Social Media Backlash

He stated, 'If you say it in English, it's fine, but in Hindi, it becomes a problem. Abuse in one's own language hurts more, but if you say the same thing in English, no one has an objection. If I had said "milky body," there would have been no problem, while what would her age be—28, 30? My children are of the same age. ' Annu Kapoor further clarified that any comment made on someone's appearance is a form of appreciation for him, not lust. He mentioned that praising someone's physical appearance has nothing to do with lust.

Clarification on Intent and Readiness to Apologize

Speaking about apologizing to Tamannaah Bhatia, he said, 'If she asks me if I said that, I will say yes, I did. If you felt bad, I will touch your feet. If a 71-year-old man touches her feet, what will she say?

The Origin of the Controversy

In fact, some time ago, Annu Kapoor was severely criticized by people on social media. People were upset by a comment he made after watching Tamannaah Bhatia's song "Aaj Ki Raat". While praising Tamannaah after watching the song, Annu had said that she's very beautiful, with a completely "dudhiya badan" (milky complexion/body). Following this, he had to face trolling. Now, Annu Kapoor has presented his side regarding the matter.
