\nFilmmaker Karan Johar has been trolled on social media with netizens slamming him for allegedly \u201cinsulting\u201d the culture and the traditional headgears of the people of the Northeast.<\/p>\n
Johar uploaded a video clip on his Instagram profile on November 10, shot during \u2018India\u2019s Got Talent\u2019 TV show, where he and actress-politician Kirron Kher along with actress Malaika Arora are co-judges. The clip shows Kher wearing a spiked bamboo Arunachalee hat and the Bollywood director exclaiming, \u201coh my god, what is that on your head?\u201d<\/p>\n
Kher replies, \u201cPeople from Arunachal Pradesh have brought it for me and they have got this for you,\u201d showing him an Assamese \u2018Japi\u2019, traditional hat made of bamboo, dried leaves and pieces of coloured cloths.To her query: \u201cWhy are you not wearing your hat,\u201d Karan Johar is heard replying, \u201cBecause you have guts, I don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n
The BJP MP quips back, \u201cHow can I break into a qawwali in a bamboo hat. What\u2019s wrong with you? You don\u2019t know the states of this country.\u201d<\/p>\n
One netizen, responding to Johar\u2019s video clip, commented, \u201cOur Prime Minister, President wear this Japi proudly when they visit northeast and they are leaving no stones unturned for the development of Northeast. At that time there are people like you who actually don\u2019t know about NorthEast and are actually insulting our culture\u201d.<\/p>\n
