Richa Chadha is still in hot water after responding to a top army commander's statement with "Galwan says hi." The since deleted tweet referred to the 2020 Galwan clash with Chinese military where 20 Indian soldiers were martyred.
After the tweet triggered a controversy, the actor issued a public apology writing, "...it would sadden me if even unintentionally my words have triggered this feeling in my brothers in the fauj of which my own Nanaji has been an illustrious part. As a Lt. Col, he took a bullet in the leg in the Indo-China war, in 1960s. My Mamaji was a paratrooper. It's in my blood."
While discussing this matter, news channel India Today exhibited an unnecessary series of images of the actor in a swimsuit. Netizens were quick to point out the sheer sexism and misogyny at play, here.
