R Madhavan ACCUSED Of Being 'Racist', 'Bigot After Old Video Of Him Joking On Muslim Polygamy Goes Viral; Netizens Say ‘Didn't Expect This From Him’
Actor R Madhavan is trending on social media, courtesy of, his old video where he joked about Muslim polygamy. He received severe backlash after several netizens raised objections to the joke that he made a few years ago while delivering a speech at the 14th edition of the Indian Conference by Harvard Business School. In the video that has now gone viral, Madhavan could be seen joking about a man who approached a gastroenterologist for removing his wife's appendix.

As per his joke, that man has many wives and the actor gave him the name Abdul and the doctor is Hindu, ‘Manu.’ After this throwback video went viral, netizens accused the 3 Idiots actor of being ‘racist and bigot.’ One Twitter user wrote, “Imagine any muslim actor cracking a joke on majority what would happen is unimaginable but this guy @ActorMadhavan cracked a joke on minorities and think that he got fun . #shameless.” Another said, “Everyone is a fool except them.  Only in bollywood you can stereotype minorities, makes racist jokes and can get away with it..” One comment can be read, “Didn't expect this from him. But as people say - a great actor may not be a great human. I have many non-muslim friends who remarried when their 1st marriage didn't work out. Some even remarried with a few months. So this 2nd wife story is nothing but an intolerance/hatred.”






Meanwhile, Madhavan makes for the most talented actor in the film industry. He was last seen in the Nambi Narayanan Biopic titled Rocketry: The Nambi Effect. The film emerged out to be a huge success at the box office. He will next be seen in Yash Raj Film’s first OTT project, ‘The Railway Men’ which also stars Kay Kay Menon, Divyenndu Sharma, Babil Khan, and others.
