Bijou Thaangjam calls out Alia Bhatt fans for racist remarks 

Bijou Thaangjam, who has been a part of projects like `Mary Kom`, `Shivaay`, and `Rocketry: The Nambi Effect` to name a few, took to X and wrote, “The irony is truly remarkable. I speak up about discrimination, and suddenly I`m met with a flood of racist and discriminatory remarks. Bravo, well done. It’s almost like your pea-sized brain can`t grasp the concept of equality. But hey, some things never change, right? No wonder people from the Northeast are treated so poorly by some in mainland India. I’m as much, if not more, Indian than you`ll ever be, but sure, keep living in that bubble.”
