Annu Kapoor faces backlash for his crass comment on Tamannaah Bhatia's body & skin complexion: 'Will you say this to your own...'

Annu Kapoor, the veteran actor and host of the entertainment industry, has garnered controversy for his comment on Tamannaah Bhatia while praising her “dudhiya badan” and making fun of her claim of children falling asleep after watching her hit track ‘Aaj Ki Raat’ from Stree 2.

In a recent interview with Shubhankar Mishra, Annu Kapoor excitedly spoke about watching a clip of ‘Aaj Ki Raat’ song and said, “Mashallah kya dudhiya badan hai (Oh my god, what milky body she has).”

Post this, the host brought up Bhatia’s claim that children sleep to her song. To which Kapoor replied, “Kitne umar ke baache so jaate hain… 70 saal ke umar ka bhi bachca ho sakta hai na, main hota toh puchta ke kitne umar ke so jaate hain. Angreezi mein bolte hain that he is 70 years old, woh 70 saal purana bacha hai… And he is 11 year old budha (Kids of which age sleep? A 70-year-old can also be a kid. I would have asked this question to her.)”
