OMG: Aamir Khan scolds Karan Johar & Arjun Kapoor for participating in AIB Roast

Finally, a big name from the industry has spoken against AIB Roast. Aamir Khan chose to throw diplomacy out of the window and expressed his fearless and frank opinion on the controversial AIB roast that has seen a fury of backlash from different sections of the society. At the very outset, Aamir made it clear that he didn’t like AIB roast one bit. He even revealed that he scolded Karan Johar and Arjun Kapoor for participating and feeling proud about AIB roast and the abuses traded on the show. Said Aamir, “I have not yet seen that roast but I've heard about it. I have seen just two to three clips. And when the roast happened, I was at a place where Karan and Arjun came and told us that we did this roast. They told us all the dialogues that were exchanged. I was deeply affected by that and most disappointed in what I was hearing. I completely believe in freedom of speech… no issues but we should understand that we have a certain responsibility." Expressing his deep anguish at such a show and calling it a violent one, Aamir said, “When I heard what was being described to me, I felt it was a very violent event. There was a lot of violence in that event. Violence is not just physical; it is also verbal, emotional and mental. When you insult someone, you are perpetuating violence. You are doing a violent thing and you are telling the world that see I am so violent. I don’t like these things. I don’t like to show violence whether it is physical or otherwise and then say take great pride in it. I am sure there many youngsters who have liked the show and all of us have different opinion and are allowed to have a different opinion. And I will give you mine.” Elaborating further on why he found the show offensive, the superstar actor said, “I didn’t like it because it was a violent show. Karan and Arjun are my friends and I scolded them. I told them I am not finding this funny. 25 gallis deke aap sochte ho ki main impress ho jaaunga. Gaaliyon se impress hone ki meri umar nikal chuki hai. I am not a 14-year old kid who will laugh after hearing an abusive word. I am not impressed by bad language. If you want to make me laugh, then do so without hurting anyone else.” Kudos Aamir!!!
