Gave more importance to Radhika who's a bigger star, that must have been a problem for Tannishtha- Krushna on racist allegations
The news of Tannishtha Chatterje having faced racist remarks on Comedy Nights Bachao took the internet by storm. Recently, Colors channel too apologised to the actress who seemed to have been deeply hurt by the lewd remarks made on her skin-tone on CNB, as a part of Roast Comedy. She expressed her anger and hurt via a Facebook post.
But it seems CNB's host Krushna Abhishekk has a complete different story to tell. While taking to a daily, he said, "Tannishtha is going overboard. She is doing this for publicity. We always meet the actors before they come on the show. I had asked her if she had seen the show before and if she was familiar with our (roast) concept. She said she hadn't seen the show. She hadn't watched even AIB Roast. If she didn't know what it was, she shouldn't have come on the show. Secondly, we gave more importance to Radhika Apte who is a bigger star. That must have also been a problem for Tannishtha."
He further stated, "I didn't say that and I don't know who said that. In any case, it is a roast format aur hamne wahi masti ki jo hamesha karte hai. In fact, we have toned it down from what it was earlier. Initially, she was enjoying, but after a while she told us she doesn't like this kind of mass humour. Neither Radhika nor Leena had any problems with our comments. In fact, they were laughing and while going, both Radhika and Leena hugged me and danced with me. In fact, after three acts, we realised that she was not enjoying the show at all. We thought she will spoil the show, so it was mine and director Nikul Desai's decision that we will send them because we had finished doing the film integration with the show."
Hope this issue settles down soon!
