Shweta Tiwari Dances To ‘Kiss My A**’ After Controversial ‘God Is Taking The Size Of My Bra’ Remark

Her statement reads as follows:

It has come to my notice that a certain statement of mine referring to a colleague’s previous role has been taken out of context and has been misconstrued. When put in context, one will understand that the statement in reference to ‘Bhagwan’ was in context with Sourabh Raj Jain’s popular role of a deity. People associate character names to actors and hence, I used that as an example during my conversation with media. However, it has been completely misconstrued which is saddening to see. As someone who has been a staunch believer of ‘Bhagwan’ myself, there is no way that I would intentionally or unintentionally say or do any such thing that would hurt sentiments by and large. I have, however, come to understand that when taken out of context, it has unintentionally hurt feelings of people. Please be assured that it has never been my intention to hurt anyone, with my words or actions. Hence, I would like to humbly apologise for the hurt that my the statement has unintentionally caused to a lot of people.

Earlier on Friday, an FIR was lodged against the actress for allegedly hurting religious sentiments. The case was registered at Shyamala Hills police station in Bhopal Madhya Pradesh.

Shweta Tiwari faced criticism after a video of her comments at a press conference for the series Show Stopper went viral. The series also stars Sourabh Raaj Jain, Rohit Roy, Digangana Suryavanshi, and Kanwaljit Singh in the lead roles. The team was attending a press conference on Wednesday for the series where Shweta was asked about Sourabh Raaj Jain’s role as Lord Krishna in Mahabharat serial and how he was playing a ‘bra fitter’ in the new series.

During the press conference, Shweta jokingly replied, “Mere bra ka size bhagwan le rahe hai (God is taking measurements of my bra)” and then laughed out.
