Recently Swara Bhasker faced the heat from the Twitteratti after a viral video showed her abusing a four-year-old actor. There were many who bashed the actress left, right and centre and there were reports of an NGO filing a complaint to the National Commission for the Protection of Child Rights and demanded action against the actor.
Now, this clip is part of a digital show, Son of Abish hosted by comedian Abish Matthew. In the video, Swara is seen using cuss words like Chu**ya and Kameena while referring to a four-year-old.
Now, in a recent media interaction, Swara spoke about the incident and did her best to defend herself. The actress said that viral video was out of context. She further clarified saying, she was just narrating an incident about her first experience shooting in Mumbai. She went on to further state, that in that partly exaggerated and satirical narration, where she was using a comedic, adult and self-deprecating tone, she used certain swear words. The words, she said, were used to display in an adult-humorous tone, her exaggerated frustrations and emotions during her struggling days.
The actress further said, if one watches the show, they will see that she was the one looking out for the child’s welfare and that she was the one trying to make sure he gets a bathroom break, which other people on the set didn’t bother about. And that, she never abused children or any co-actor and she has always treated children with the care, affection and the responsible conduct they deserve. She further clarified, the quip that children are evil was obviously a joke.
Swara went on to say that the entire thing was just blown out of proportions and that she was clearly being targeted. Bhasker further said it is very important to address and correct the factually inaccurate things being circulated about oneself or anyone for that matter in public.
