In his latest interview, he revealed an incident where two bikers called him 'Coronavirus' when he stepped out for his jog due to his appearance. Now, he had released a video in which he has spoken about the casual racism he has suffered all through his life and how it is not cool.
In the video titled, My Name Is Chang and I am not Coronavirus, Meiyang starts with the song 'Chehra Kya Dekhte Ho, Dil Mein Utar Ke Dekho Na'. He then goes on to narrate the story of a man who has been ignoring racist remarks since childhood. From getting called 'Ching Chong', 'Hakka Noodles', 'Nakli Maal' and more, Chang says that he has taken it all. But further, he says that it is because this kind of racism, not just him, people from Northeast India are also suffering.
