Let us tell you that last month, the actor was in a lot of controversies regarding one of his comments. The actor made this remark about Bengalis during the Gujarat election campaign. According to the reports, Paresh Rawal had made a statement during the Gujarat election campaign linking expensive gas cylinders with Bengalis. After this he had to face criticisms. He had said that gas cylinders are expensive, but their prices will come down. People will get employment, but what will happen when Rohingya refugees and Bangladeshis start living near you, like in Delhi. What will you do with the gas cylinder? Will you cook fish for the Bengalis?
Recently, Paresh Rawal has presented a clarification on this comment. He has said, ‘It was a slip of tongue and what I said was misinterpreted. It was not my intention to hurt anyone. I am saddened to know that the Bengali people whose art, cinema and literature I look up to have misunderstood me.’ Please tell that when Paresh Rawal was criticized for this statement, he later apologized for it.
