What started out as an unfiltered, candid conversation a week back has turned into a massive backlash for Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul from all sections of the society. Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul, who recently appeared in one of the episodes of Koffee with Karan, have the two been slammed by various sections of the society for their derogatory and misogynist comments, BCCI too has intervened and banned the two for the next ODI series.
Even Hotstar, the online streaming partner of the show, has pulled down the episode and all the teasers and promos of the episode from their social media handles. And what's more? A well-known brand which used to sponsor Hardik Pandya, too, has backed out from being a sponsor.
- I have always wanted to be a little different from what others are. Just came naturally to me, that's why I ask my parents so many times – 'You are sure that I am your child, right?

So, I get that.
