Tanya Mittal Speaks Out Against Online Trolling of Comedian Pranit More

Tanya Mittal Addresses Pranit More's Controversy

Tanya Mittal, a former contestant from Bigg Boss 19, has expressed her thoughts regarding the backlash comedian Pranit More has received following his controversial "Rs 370 ki biryani" comment during a stand-up performance. Although Tanya has never been a fan of Pranit's demeanor on the reality show, she feels that the criticism directed at him has escalated excessively. In her candid remarks, she emphasized the importance of accountability but warned that relentless trolling can be detrimental not only to the individual but also to their loved ones.

Tanya's Dislike for Pranit's Behavior

During her appearance on The Super Womaniya Show on YouTube, Tanya clarified that she is not defending Pranit's behavior, as she has had her own grievances with him. She stated, "I don't like Pranit because he has not been nice to me." Tanya expressed discomfort with Pranit's manner of addressing others informally and admitted to avoiding his 'Pranit More Show' while in the house.

Despite her personal feelings, Tanya conveyed sympathy for Pranit due to the overwhelming backlash he is currently enduring. She acknowledged that while criticism for a mistake is warranted, the situation has spiraled out of control. "I feel bad for Pranit. A mistake happened, FIRs were filed against him and he has faced public scorn. But we must remember that he has a family," she remarked.

Tanya Advocates for an End to Social Media Trolling

Tanya further emphasized the need for social media users to recognize when enough is enough. She pointed out that everyone is capable of making mistakes and deserves a chance to acknowledge and learn from them. "What he did was wrong, but mistakes happen. He made one and he has apologized for it," she noted. The Bigg Boss 19 contestant highlighted that criticism should not turn into harassment, as social media can become toxic when users continue to target someone long after they have been called out. She urged individuals to show empathy and consider how they would feel in a similar situation.

Reflecting on her own experiences in the public eye, Tanya acknowledged how swiftly social media can turn against someone. She recognized that public figures often face harsh judgment, and a single misstep can lead to widespread outrage. "Today I am discussing someone else's controversy. Tomorrow, I could make a mistake too, and social media would not spare me either," she stated. Tanya called for a distinction between constructive criticism and abusive trolling, emphasizing that online harassment should not reach a point where it disrupts the peace of their families.

For context, the controversy began when an audience member claimed to have spent Rs 370 on a girl's biryani, suggesting he wanted to 'recover' it through sexual favors. Pranit was seen laughing and encouraging the man throughout the viral video.
