Hardik Pandya-KL Rahul Controversy: Case registered against cricketers, Karan Johar in Jodhpur

An FIR has been registered against cricketers Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul and filmmaker Karan Johar for their controversial remarks against women on a celebrity chat show. 

The case has been registered by DR Meghwal at a police station in Luni in Jodhpur under various sections of the Indian Penal Code.

Pandya and Rahul were previously suspended by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for their misogynist comments on the show.

Pandya, who shared the couch with Rahul on an episode of the show hosted by Karan Johar, faced backlash for what netizens termed 'sexist' and 'disrespectful' remarks on women.

On the show, he bragged about not asking the names of women at parties and how he watched them move on the dance floor.

Later, Pandya took to social media and apologised for the remarks saying he "may have got a bit carried away with the nature of the show".
