New Delhi: After a case was registered in Madhya Pradesh against television actress Shweta Tiwari for her ‘God is taking my bra size’ statement, she apologised on Friday.
She apologised for hurting the sentiments but also emphasised that her statement was taken out of context and has been misconstrued.
Shweta Tiwari’s statement read: “It has come to my notice that a certain statement of mine referring to a colleague’s previous role has been taken out of context and has been misconstrued. When put in context, one will understand that the statement in reference to ‘Bhagwan’ was in context with Sourabh Raj Jain’s popular role of a deity. People associate character names to actors and hence, I used that as an example during my conversation with media. However, it has been completely misconstrued which is saddening to see. As someone who has been a staunch believer of ‘Bhagwan’ myself, there is no way that I would intentionally or unintentionally say or do any such thing that would hurt sentiments by and large. I have, however, come to understand that when taken out of context, it has unintentionally hurt feelings of people. Please be assured that it has never been my intention to hurt anyone, with my words or actions. Hence, I would like to humbly apologise for the hurt that the statement has unintentionally caused to a lot of people.”
Shweta Tiwari recently courted controversy after she said in an interview ‘God is taking my bra size’. The actress was promoting her upcoming web show, Show Stopper, in Bhopal when she made this controversial remark.
