Vinod Dua Says He Will SCREW Akshay Kumar For Below The Belt Comment On Daughter Mallika Dua; Later Deletes Post
After blasting Akshay Kumar on Facebook, Mallika Dua and Vinod Dua went ahead to delete their posts. We wonder why? Read on to know the whole story...
Mallika Dua was ousted from the popular TV show The Great Indian Laughter Challenge a few days back. Only after her ouster did the comedienne and her father, Vinod Dua, a veteran journalist, come up with accusations against the show's driving force - Akshay Kumar.
Akshay Kumar Strikes A Pose For A Photo Shoot
Now sources close to the channel have blasted the Duas stating that the clip that they referred to while accusing Akshay was from the very first episode. So, if they did have a problem with the comment, why did Mallika continue to shoot the rest of the episodes with Akshay? “The clip belongs to the first episode, and if Mallika had a problem with it why didn’t she raise the alarm right then? She continued to shoot with Akshay for further episodes, and they got along well. Why has this post only come up after the news of being replaced from the show?” the source questions.
For those who've come in late, the clip that the Duas are referring to has Akshay telling Mallika while ringing the golden bell, "Mallika Ji, aap ghanti bajao main apko bajata hoon."

Now fans are claiming that it was said in jest by the superstar, but as SheSaysIndia, a non-profit organisation fighting for women's rights pointed out on their Facebook post, it seems like a case of sexual harassment at work place. The post read, “Male actors still get away with making sexually colored remarks like this one under the guise of ‘comedy’. This is unacceptable and can be deemed an offense under S. 354 A of the Indian Penal Code and The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013. In light of the Harvey Weinstein scandal, we need to look closer to home and fight this pervasive culture. #MeToo (sic).”
Vinod went on to post the video with the caption, "I am going to screw this cretin Akshay Kumar for telling his co worker Mallika Dua that “aap bell bajao main aap ko bajata hun” at 5:26.This is his sense of humor and language. Star Plus..wake up..(sic)."

Both Vinod and Mallika have now deleted their posts.
Mallika was on board with the show as a mentor to the contestants and recently she was thrown out of the show because of low TRPs along with fellow comedians Zakir Khan and Hussain Dalal. They have now been replaced by Shreyas Talpade and Sajid Khan.
We eagerly await a statement from Akshay on the matter and as well from Vinod & Mallika as to why they deleted their posts. Stay hooked onto SpotboyE.com as the drama unfolds right here.
