The controversy surrounding comedian Pranit More has taken a new turn after a viral video featuring a woman doctor triggered widespread criticism on social media.
The doctor, identified as Sejal Pawar, came under fire after a clip from one of More’s shows resurfaced online. In the video, she made a remark about discussing and comparing the private parts of male cadavers with colleagues at a hospital.
As the clip spread across social media platforms, many users criticized the comment and called it insensitive. Consequently, the controversy quickly gained attention online.
Viral Video Draws Strong Reactions
The clip emerged while public debate was already focused on the ongoing ‘Rs 370 Ki Biryani’ controversy linked to Pranit More’s crowd-work performances.
In the video, Sejal spoke about conversations she and fellow medical professionals allegedly had regarding male cadavers. The remark sparked criticism from many social media users, who argued that such comments were inappropriate, especially coming from a medical professional.
As the backlash intensified, Sejal reportedly removed several posts from her social media accounts. She also temporarily made her Instagram profile private before restoring public access.
In addition, she deleted her profile bio and later shared a detailed apology statement.
Sejal Pawar Responds to the Controversy
Addressing the criticism, Sejal acknowledged that the comments were inappropriate and admitted that people had valid reasons to be upset.
In her public statement, she said she had watched the clip again and understood why many viewers reacted negatively.
According to Sejal, she never intended to disrespect anyone. However, she accepted that the impact of her words mattered more than her original intention.
Furthermore, she stated that she was not trying to justify or defend her comments. Instead, she accepted responsibility and admitted that her words could be interpreted differently from what she had intended.
Calls the Incident a Learning Experience
Sejal described the episode as an important lesson that made her reflect on how she communicates sensitive topics.
She said the incident had encouraged her to think more carefully about discussions involving subjects that require greater sensitivity and respect.
Moreover, she offered an apology to anyone who felt hurt or disappointed by the clip.
The doctor also promised to be more mindful in the future and said she would ensure such a situation does not happen again.
What Is the ‘Rs 370 Ki Biryani’ Row?
The latest controversy comes at a time when Pranit More’s show is already facing scrutiny because of another viral crowd-work video.
The now-deleted clip featured an audience member discussing a date where he spent approximately Rs 370 on a chicken biryani.
During the interaction, the man suggested that because he had paid for the meal, he expected something in return. His remarks were widely criticized online, with many people describing them as misogynistic and inappropriate.
The individual was later identified as Himanshu Jangra, a 22-year-old resident of Gurugram, Haryana.
In the viral video, he said that after paying for the food, he was surprised when the woman only asked him to drop her home. His comments implied that spending money on the date entitled him to physical intimacy, which triggered widespread condemnation across social media.
Pranit More’s Social Media Presence Under Spotlight
Meanwhile, comedian Pranit More has also faced criticism over the viral clips associated with his performances.
Reports indicate that his Instagram account currently appears to be deactivated, with no visible public activity on the platform.
As discussions continue online, both controversies have reignited debates about crowd-work comedy, audience interactions, and the responsibilities of public figures when discussing sensitive subjects.
