Shraddha Kapoor’s brother, Siddhant Kapoor, also weighed in, leaving a comment on social media, “Chal Nikal”—a phrase implying that Ranveer should leave the situation and stop defending his actions. This comment further fueled the ongoing controversy.
The incident has sparked a larger conversation about the boundaries of humour, especially when it comes to sensitive topics like family. While some have supported Ranveer’s apology, others believe that certain topics should never be joked about, regardless of the context or intention behind the comment.
