Shiv Sena and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) slammed Bigg Boss 14 contestant Jaan Kumar Sanu as, during the previous episode, he asked his fellow contestant Nikki Tamboli to not talk in Marathi, “Marathi mei mat baat kar, mere saamne mat baat kar, meko chid hoti hai. Sunaauga teko, mere saamne Marathi mei mat baat kar. Dum hai toh Hindi mei bol warna mat baat kar, chid machti hai meko.”
Yuva Sena leader Rahul Kanal in his tweet wrote, “Kamal Sanu should be thrown out of @BiggBoss immediately and such humans should not be a part of any public forum at all @ColorsTV timely apology or you want this controversy for your TRP better render an apology and throw that retard out of the show !!!”
Shiv Sena leaders Aadesh Bandekar and Pratap Sarnaik tweeted, “The management of Bigg Boss and this person should immediately apologize to Maharashtra and the Marathi people who committed this act should be expelled immediately …” he wrote in Marathi.
Pratap Sarnaik wrote, “Jan Kumar Sanu … to say that he is annoyed with the Marathi language. Oh, you are a big worm … I am nominating him to drive him out of Mumbai.” In another tweet, he wrote, “If you live in Mumbai, I will see how your career turns out now. Now I guarantee that you will get angry yourself soon. You will be beaten soon, now we are Marathi. And a channel like Colors actually wanted to skip this scene, but it was better not to edit, to understand what the faces of traitors are like,” he tweeted in Marathi.
Soon after, ColorsTv issued an official apology statement on their social media handle, that read as, “We at COLORS apologise for the remarks in relation to the Marathi language made on the Bigg Boss episode aired on Tuesday, 27th October. We had no intentions of hurting sentiments of the people of Maharastra.”
