Kangana Ranaut and Jim Sarbh
A video featuring the two has surfaced online. In it, Jim
can be seen cracking a joke on rape, as Kangana stands by him and laughs in
approval.
After the video invited flak on Twitter, Jim
Sarbh told Hindustan Times that his comments were taken out of context. “It is
unfortunate that my comments were taken out of context. I do not now nor have I
ever condoned any form of sexual violence. This has been picked out of context
without a prelude where I am actually enacting parts of a play which is a dark
satire,” said the actor.

One. He made a hideous joke and included a vital thing called 'Rape'
Two. he included 'prostitute' in that "I would rather be raped by 12 prostitutes..." are you freaking kidding me ? you just stated that they are as equal as Rapists ?

Dear Jim Sarbh/ Kangana Ranaut

Rape jokes are not funny. Rape is NOT a joke. If you tell or laugh at jokes about rape you are a part of the problem. https://t.co/Pk5bSB9zCr

I am totally dissapointed in that entire group who were laughing at a rape joke. Being a @jimSarbh fan, dissapointed in him more for making such a joke.
