Many people in my mentions defending this line saying “it’s said by an Auschwitz survivor and Jahnvi’s character is merely translating it” — let me correct you, it’s actually said *by* the writers and director, while two actors recite it in different languages. Inexcusable.

In translation, the actress compared the sentence said by someone else in the movie. The dialogue has come across as insensitive since Auschwitz is known for the horrifying holocaust in which many lost their lives tragically.

When Lisa Ray came across a tweet revealing the information, the actress seemed in disbelief. She wrote, "Noooooooo."

Noooooooo

A few other movie buffs also came across Janhvi’s dialogue and the following scene has been going viral on the internet.

Netizens too are in shock over the reference and link between the two things. Some of the netizens felt that Bollywood is losing its mind. Check out what the netizens have to say about Bawaal movie dialogue here:

Just seeing the trailer was so cringe and to see it reaffirmed in your tweets / review reinforces the level of cringe. What were they thinking....i guess they were not!

Censor boards pass such stuff.
Maybe AI would be a better replacement to such boards

I just can't imagine a survivor saying this in real life.

As per the movie, Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor go to Europe and learn about Auschwitz for a reason. In real life, Varun and Janhvi visited Auschwitz and heard the story of World War 2 and the story of Jews as well.

Janhvi and Varun visited the place like tourists and heard the pre-recorded tapes talking about the history of the place.

Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Bawaal also stars Manoj Pahwa, Anjuman Saxena, Mukesh Tiwari amongst others.
