Quick Read
Comedian Bharti Singh returns to host the third season of the reality cookery show Laughter Chefs. Kapil Sharma and the Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 actors recently made an appearance on the show to promote their flick. While Bharti is known for her sense of humour, her comment regarding Ayesha Khan`s appearance sparked outrage among viewers, who accused her of body-shaming the actor on national television.
During the episode, Warina, Ayesha, Tridha, and Parul Gulati arrived on site and sang the film`s song Pahli Uddi Furrr. Shortly thereafter, Bharti tweeted, "Jab saari heroine aayi na, mujhe Ayesha ko dekh ke laga, Krushna phir se aa gaya, kyunki uski tarah lambi hai na (After seeing Ayesha, I thought Krushna returned because she is tall like Krushna)." Ayesha was visibly uncomfortable and ran towards Kapil Sharma, attempting to conceal her stomach with her hand. Kapil then questioned Bharti, "Was this a compliment or what?" Parul Gulati also informed Bharti, "You shouldn`t have said this," to which she replied, "Sorry, I am pregnant."
