Mukesh Khanna says make Ranveer Allahabadia ‘sit on a donkey with his face painted black’: ‘Mai shaktiman hota toh ise pakad ke antariksh mein fek deta’

He added, “I have watched this famous YouTuber’s interviews. He has done good work in the past, but now he has gone and spoken about parents and sex. Someone asked me what do you think should be done. I said, ‘You should hold him and beat him. Make him sit on a donkey with his face painted black and make him tour the nation.'”

Listing the reason behind youngsters carelessly making such statements, Mukesh Khanna said, “The problem is the youth of today has been given too much liberty in the name of ‘Freedom of Expression’. There needs to be a limit to everything, even freedom of expression.”

He added, “I saw the video. He made a shameful statement, and all of them present around him, they all laughed. Nobody cared to object him.” The actor went on to say in frustration, “Mai agar Shaktiman hota toh ise pakad ke antariksh mein fek deta. (If I were Shaktiman, I would drag him and throw him in the galaxy).”

In his video, Mukesh Khanna also shared a message for PM Modi and said, “I think my next statement might hurt a lot of people including PM Modi. He had told some time back that our nation will be declared the young nation in 25 years. I want to ask him, ‘Sir, first look closely at the young generation you are talking about.'” He suggested the government to set up an “Ashleel control board”.

The actor said, “They say all these inappropriate things are allowed when ‘roasting’ someone. I don’t think anything morally wrong should be allowed.”

Mukesh Further complained about how schools today have removed the subject Moral Science, which taught kids values and ways to behave with their friends and family.

“Previously, kids used to have a subject called Moral Science in their schools. Today most of the schools don’t have it. Who decided it for them? This is the reason why these youths turn out to be like this? There is a line between comedy and vulgarity, and this line is being crossed constantly in the name of comedy. The audience should reject this kind of content. If audience won’t reject them, then government will have to intervene. Nobody should be able to freely say vulgar things in the name of comedy. YouTube is just a medium to earn. I too have 13 lakh subscribers. This is no school, or college. People should not use vulgarity to earn money,” said the actor.

In the same video, Mukesh Khanna also took a dig at Vir Das and said, “An incident like this had happened before when a comedian went on an international stage and said, ‘Humarein desh mein subah kuch raat ko kuch aur hota hai.’ I had said back then, people should catch him and beat him up. I even demanded people to ban him, but no attention was paid.”
