Comedian Bharti Singh has landed herself into hassle for hurting the sentiments of the Sikh community with her funny story on moustaches and beards. Following the same, an FIR has been lodged towards her at Adampur police station in Jalandhar. The case was once registered on the criticism of Ravidas Tiger Force chief Jassi Tallan. She has been charged underneath Section 295-A (deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings) of the Indian Penal Code. The jokes in her video have been made in the presence of Jasmin Bhasin and showed her talking about how guys have lice in their beards. After the video went viral, protests in opposition to her took location on Monday in Amritsar by using a number Sikh agencies who claimed that she has disrespected the beard Sikh guys preserve as part of their religious beliefs.
After the fiasco took place, Bharti even shared an apology video on her Instagram handle. In the sam, she spoke about how her intentions have been no longer to harm any community. Bharti said, “There’s a video that’s been going viral from the ultimate three to four days claiming that I have made fun of ‘daadi mooch’. I have considered the video many times and request humans to watch it too as I have not stated whatever in opposition to any religion or caste. I did not mock any Punjabi or what problems take place when you maintain ‘daadi mooch’.”
She added, “I was once doing comedy with my buddy but if it has hurt the sentiments of any section, I apologise with folded hands. I am a Punjabi myself, I was born in Amritsar and I’d constantly admire it. I am a proud Punjabi, too.”
While sharing the video, the comic wrote in the caption, “Main comedy karti hoon emblem ko khush karne ke liye na ki kisi ka dil dukhane ke liye .agar meri kisi baat se koi harm hua ho tho maaf kar dena aapni behan samjh ke #punjabi #proudpunjabi #love #respect.”
On the professional front, Bharti is these days seen as the co-host of ‘The Khatra Khatra Show’ along with her husband Haarsh Limbachiyaa.
