Popular YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT 2 winner Elvish Yadav has been summoned by the National Commission for Women following accusations of making racist remarks against actor Chum Darang. The women's panel confirmed that Yadav is expected to appear before them on February 17 to address the issue.
Reports indicate that the NCW acted upon complaints after Yadav, during a podcast with fellow Big Boss 18 contestant Rajat Dalal, allegedly made derogatory comments about Darang's ethnicity and mocked her involvement in the film 'Gangubai Kathiawadi.' The comments quickly circulated on social media, generating significant backlash.
Chum, who participated in Bigg Boss herself, strongly condemned the comments through a post, emphasizing that there is a clear line between humor and hate. Her response highlighted the disrespect aimed not only at her ethnicity but also at her professional achievements.
