Oscars are never without controversies, and it looks like this time it is Jimmy Kimmel who has come under the scanner. After mistaking RRR for a Bollywood movie, Jimmy's interaction with Nobel Prize-winning activist Malala Yousafzai has also upset the netizens.

During the award ceremony, Kimmel approached Malala and read out a question posted by a fan. He said, "She asked about your work on human rights and education for women and children, which is an inspiration—as the youngest Nobel prize winner in history.
