Sidharth Malhotra is currently promoting his upcoming thriller ‘Aiyaary’ which is expected to hit the theatres on February 9. However, the actor seems to have stepped on the wrong foot while promoting the film on ‘Bigg Boss 11’ along with co-star Manoj Bajpayee.
Salman Khan had given the actors the task of repeating his dialogue from ‘Dabangg’ in Bhojpuri which Sidharth promptly tried. However, he confessed to getting a 'latrine-kind' of feeling on doing the same. His comment seems to have not gone down well with some.
Actress Neetu Chandra, whose mother tongue happens to be Bhojpuri, recently took to her twitter handle and slammed the actor. She wrote, “So disappointed @S1dharthM some1who is so fortunate 2 work wd d best. Who despite being an outsider has made a name 4 himself,4 U 2 use ur words so loosely.2 disrespect #Bhojpuri on national TV. SHOCKED! How on earth does speaking in #Bhojpuri gives u a latrine feeling. Shame on U.”
Taking a note of the situation, Sidharth took to his micro-blogging handle to apologize. He wrote, “I recently tried speaking a new language while I was on a TV show. In the process, if I inadvertently hurt anyone's feelings or sentiments, I apologise and assure you that no disrespect was meant in any way.”
