Swara Bhasker slams trolls for making casteist remarks on her husband Fahad Ahmad

Swara Bhasker Fahad Ahmad

Pati Patni Aur Panga's Swara Bhasker, renowned for films such as 'Raanjhanaa', 'Veere Di Wedding', and 'Tanu Weds Manu', is currently appearing on the reality show 'Pati Patni Aur Panga' with her politician-husband Fahad Ahmad. The actress has now blocked a social media user who mocked Fahad by calling him a 'Chhapri'.

Several videos of Swara and Fahad from the show, which recently premiered, have been circulating on social media. A troll posted on X in response to one footage, "After watching @Parineeti Chopra taking her husband to talk shows for PR, @ReallySwara thought of doing the same."

The user went on to say, "She took his Dongri ka Chapri husband to a reality show. Forget public relations; his husband resembled a street trader from Dongri."

Swara hits back at the casteist comments

Swara hits back at the casteist comments, "This twit who describes himself both as a proud Hindu and Ambedkarite does not seem to know that Chhapri is a casteist slang, a derogatory term used to describe a community that fixes ‘chappars' or thatched huts. Also, nothing wrong with being a street vendor from Dongri or anywhere, you casteist / classist trash-brain! #casteistAlert"

Swara has frequently been at the heart of online debates. She has also received harassment and hatred in the past due to her political beliefs and outspoken thoughts.

Swara and Fahad Ahmad got married on February 16, 2023. Later that year, on September 23, the couple welcomed their daughter Rabiya. Swara and Fahad share the screen on 'Pati Patni Aur Panga', hosted by Sonali Bendre and Munawar Faruqui, to provide viewers with an unvarnished look into relationships.

Swara on revisiting the wedding memories

Earlier, Swara shared, "There was something poetic about beginning our married life in the same home where I spent my childhood. That space held bedtime stories, vacations, growing pains… and now, it holds our wedding memories too. Celebrating there was a throwback to so many things; it was a reunion of every version of me - the daughter, the granddaughter, and the wife. I loved telling the story of our wedding on Pati Patni Aur Panga - it was far from perfect, but we made it our own with everything we had."
