Racist Remarks About Lisa Haydon Enrages Akshay Kumar On 'Comedy Nights Bachao'

Darpan News Desk IANS, 24 May, 2016 01:31 PM
  • Racist Remarks About Lisa Haydon Enrages Akshay Kumar On 'Comedy Nights Bachao'
The team of Housefull 3 visited the sets of Comedy Nights Bachao and actress Lisa Haydon was showered with racist remarks on the show.
 
Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Lisa Haydon and Jacqueline Fernandez were having a wonderful time on the sets with Krushna Abhishek and Bharti Singh taking everyone on a laugh riot, until they started passing some derogatory comments on the actresses of the film.
 
An newsreport claims that Akshay and Riteish were clearly looking rather uncomfortable as they felt that the ladies were being humiliated.
 
Soon the last straw came in the form of a remark by Siddharth Jadhav as he spoke about Lisa looking like a kangaroo since she comes from Australia. Before this, he had allegedly passed a racist comment, calling her a ‘black African’.
 
This enraged the otherwise calm Akshay Kumar. Akki lost his cool and immediately went ahead to stop the comedian from hurling insults at the actress and that too in front of the entire audience! 
 
The report also says that Lisa and Jacky would have burst into tears had Akshay not intervened. “But when it went out of hand, he couldn’t control himself. He was upset that the comedians were aware that Lisa wasn’t too well versed in Hindi and wouldn’t even understand the few lines that the guys uttered. 
 
So, he thought it was all the more unfair that one would make fun of a person who didn’t even know the language well,” added a unit member.
 
Housefull 3 is slated to release on June 3 this year.
