Author Chetan Bhagat recently spoke about Uorfi Javed. He said that the youth of this country, especially boys, are being misled by her. Uorfi responded to Chetan’s comments. She called him a ‘pervert.’ She shared screenshots of Chetan Bhagat’s alleged WhatsApp messages that were leaked in 2018 during the Me Too movement.
But the author responded. On Sunday, he tweeted about alleged WhatsApp messages that Uorfi was ‘spreading. He called them ‘fake.’ He clarified that he never ‘criticized’ her.
He spoke at a recent event. He said, “Phone has been a great distraction for the youth, especially the boys, spending hours just watching Instagram Reels. Everyone knows who Uorfi Javed is… What will you do with her photos? Is it coming in your exams or you will go for a job interview and tell the interviewer that you know all her outfits?”
In response to his comments, Uorfi took to Instagram Stories on Saturday. She criticized his statement in a series of notes. She wrote, “Men like him will always blame the women (rather) than accepting their own shortcomings. Just because you’re a pervert doesn’t mean it’s the girl’s fault or what is she wearing. Unnecessarily dragging me into a conversation, commenting on how my clothes are distracting young boys is such as f****d thing to say. You messaging girls isn’t a distraction for them, Chetan Bhagat?”
She shared the leaked screenshots of his alleged WhatsApp messages. Uorfi wrote on Instagram Stories too. She wrote, “Guys, let’s not forget how so many women accused him during the Me Too case.”
She concluded, “Stop promoting rape culture you sickos out there. Blaming women’s clothes for the behaviour of men is so 80s Mr Chetan Bhagat. Who was distracting you when you messaged girls half of your age? Always blame the opposite gender, and never accept your own shortcomings or faults.”
Have never spoken to/chatted with/met/ known someone where it’s being spread that I have done so. It’s fake. a lie.also a Non issue.Haven’t criticised anyone.And I also think there’s nothing wrong in telling people to stop wasting time on Instagram and focus on fitness and career
