Sivakarthikeyan mocks Korean language (based on that racist “comedy” sequence from Don), says all koreans look alike, and their women look like men.

All these in an event at a school, in front of kids!

“Dear celebrities, Mind your privileges and be sensible enough to take up things that you don’t even imagined., Atrocious to the extreme core” an online user said on seeing the video whereas another one said “Good Lord. Does he realize how offensive this is? Imagine an actor from a different country talking about Indian cinema and actors like this. Everything is not supposed to be humor for f*ck’s sake. These folks need a crash course on how to talk in public”

Check out some of the reactions below :

This is what I have been calling out for, this man is really toxic in all his films and what he represents(stalking, backwards ideologies, racism, body shaming jokes). Pulling Tamil cinema 100 years back. I will never change my opinion about this guy, his films are trash. https://t.co/gtM3lj2CwZ

This is disappointing from a celebrity. His lack of knowledge and misinformation about a country and its culture is shocking. We all know its Korean man who look like women. https://t.co/tqQFG2UoAv

This is heartbreaking. Imagine if Koreans had spoken anything about us Tamils or the language- varinju kattitu sandaikku povom. How is this fair? “Don” was revolting and these comments are extremely insensitive & racist. It’s not remotely funny. https://t.co/XLJfVsR4lD

I don’t think this guy can match the acting skills of Koreans. The way this sleazy joke has been appreciated is disturbing. This is 2022, and where are we heading to? https://t.co/4wqkJreh2Y

On the work front, Sivakarthikeyan is expected to be seen in films such as “Prince”, “Maveeran”, “Ayalan” etc. His last two ventures “Don” and “Doctor” became successful.
