Tannishtha did all this for PUBLICITY: Krushna Abhishek

New Delhi: Parched actress Tannishtha Chatterjee wrote an open letter to Colors channel on 28th September accusing ‘Comedy Nights Bachao Taaza’ for the racist remarks on her during the roast. She bashed the show and said “And this was an entirely novel understanding of roast that equates itself with bullying. And to my utmost horror, I soon realized that the only quality they found worth roasting about in me was my skin tone. It began with “ aap ko jamun bahut pasand hoga zaroor… kitna jamun khaya aapne bachpan se?” And went on in that direction… the only thing they could roast about a dark-skinned actress was of course her dark skin” Soon Colors channel came in front and apologized for the matter. But what Krushna Abhishek has said to DNA in an interview has caught our attention. Krushna has an entirely different viewpoint from channel’s. Krushna said “Tannishtha is going overboard. She is doing this for publicity. We always meet the actors before they come on the show. I had asked her if she had seen the show before and if she was familiar with our (roast) concept. She said she hadn't seen the show. She hadn't watched even AIB Roast. If she didn't know what it was, she shouldn't have come on the show. Secondly, we gave more importance to Radhika Apte who is a bigger star. That must have also been a problem for Tannishtha." This was just the second episode of Comedy Nights Bachao Taaza and it already landed in controversy.
