Kubbra Sait Calls Out Hindustani Bhaus Viral Video Promoting Communal Violence Read Tweet
Sacred Games actress Kubbra Sait called out controversial YouTuber Hindustani Bhau for a viral video that many say promotes communal violence. And honestly good for her because someone needed to say it.
The video in question shows Bhau making inflammatory statements that critics say are designed to incite hatred between religious communities. Sait didnt mince words in her response calling out both the content and the platforms that allow it to spread.
India Today reported on Saits tweet which quickly went viral itself with many supporting her stance.
Hindustani Bhau whose real name is Vikas Fhatak has built a following through loud aggressive videos that often target specific communities or individuals. His style isnt subtle and thats kind of the point.
Social media platforms struggle with content moderation especially when creators have large followings and generate significant engagement.
Sait wrote that silence in the face of such content makes everyone complicit. Which is a sentiment more public figures should probably echo but most stay quiet to avoid the inevitable backlash.
The response to her tweet was predictably mixed. Supporters praised her courage while Bhaus followers flooded her mentions with abuse. Par for the course on Indian Twitter unfortunately.
Whether any action gets taken against the original video remains to be seen. These things tend to get forgotten once the news cycle moves on.
