Mumbai: Twitter is buzzing with tweets about Navjot Singh Sidhu’s statements on the Pulwama terror attack. #BoycottSidhu has been trending on Twitter and we got exclusive scoop from a source that he will be sacked from the show because of his comments and the outrage on social media. Fans were really upset with him and were demanding that the channel replace him with someone else. The channel will be replacing Sidhu with Archana Puran Singh, as per our sources. We tried contacting Kiku Sharda to get an update on the current situation but the comedian felt it is too sensitive a topic to talk about right now.
He said, “It is a very sensitive topic to talk about right now. I wouldn’t want to comment on it.” A source told us exclusively, “The channel has told the production house to sack Sidhu. It’s not a temporary thing. They are going to get him out. In fact, even in the past, during the MeToo movement, when there were allegations against Anu Malik, the channel took a stand. The channel has shot a couple of episodes with Archana Puran Singh and most probably, she will be the one replacing Sidhu.”
While addressing the issue in the media, Sidhu said, “For a handful of people, can you blame the entire nation and can you blame an individual? It (the attack) is a cowardly act and I condemn it firmly. Violence is always condemnable and those who did it must be punished.” These statements were what got him in trouble with fans. Stay tuned with us for more updates.
