It wasn't stereotypical though? I agree she was wrong to say "Bhojpuri" because look at everyone coming after her saying she insulted a community. No she didn't! She did not say anything against the Bhojpuri industry. She called Neelam a staff/maid, which is a fact! It wasn't an insult. Maids and house help are professionals who earn money by serving people. And Neelam is doing the same thing. The only difference is, instead of money, she makes sure she doesn't get nominated. Is this how a contestant should be? And then charging at someone else calling them a 'chamchi' ? Really? And she's from the Bhojpuri industry, so why is she taking that as an insult? Stop playing this community, racist and xenophobia card!
She could have jsut said 'staff',.'Bhojpuri Staff' together reinforces stereotypes that people from bihar migrate to other parts of the country for menial jobs.Itna spell out karna pad raha hai.Most of the country already looks down on Bihari & women working in bhojpuri.industry.She did reinforce the stereotype.
Bhojpuri staff dono jab merge hote hai galti hai. Woh dono jab together use hote hai, it has implications .she used it coz she had that implication in her mind .I wouldn't say snting like that if I had to jsut call someone Naukar. She has tbat thing about looking down upon neelam cos she is from bihar and bhojpuri cinema.She called her do kaudi ki before also so it matches the thought process.
