Speaking of the challenges facing overweight actors, Ram Kapoor said: “She was my female size and probably more successful than me. It’s just that she left earlier and that she was Smriti Irani. When she started Kyunki SaaS (Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi) at the end, she was huge. He added:” It will be difficult for another guy. But Smriti did it; She did it with all this weight. “
The actor’s remarks were quickly taken up by a Reddit account, which shared extracts from the interview, leading to an intense reaction from users. Many criticized Kapoor for what they considered an unnecessary accent on the weight of Iran rather than on its talent and contributions.
A user commented: “Did he explicitly take his name? He seems to be more attention for his weight loss in the way possible. Alert of a whore of attention.” Another wrote: “Weight loss made his mind pass through cuckoo.” Others have pointed out: “He considered the possibility that Smriti Irani, for all his faults, is a better actor than women, the tracks of women, for obvious reasons, were considered more relevant.
Some also highlighted the immense pressure suffered that Irani was confronted during the top of the show, with a user saying: “She had two children by making the series and did not have time to lose weight. She said that she had to literally come back to shoot like two days after having a child.” Another has noted: “Yes, and Ram Kapoor of everyone must remember how thinly she considered, they literally played in front of the other in Kavita.”

While social media continues to criticize Ram Kapoor’s repeated misconduct, the actor has not yet responded to the new wave of counterpouss.
