Comedian Raju Srivastava breathed his last on October 21, 2022. He fought for his life for nearly 40 days before leaving for his heavenly abode. It was on August 10 that Raju Srivastava complained of chest pain while exercising in the gym and he was rushed to the hospital. He has been on a ventilator ever since. His funeral took place today. Messages of tribute and condolence poured in from all quarters on social media. From Prime Minister Narendra Modi to actor Ajay Devgn, many expressed their grief over his passing. But a message from AIB’s Rohan Joshi has caught everyone’s attention and netizens are not happy.
Rohan Joshi’s comment has repercussions
Rohan Joshi complained to Raju Srivastava in a comment on Instagram and it’s all about entertainment news. He stated that the late comedian hated the new generation of comedians and that he would talk shit about the emerging art form. He also wrote about Kamra and tidying up. This didn’t go down well with many hitting him left, right and center on social media. Rohan Joshi is trending on Twitter because the netizens are outraged at him for making such a comment to Raju Srivastava after his death.
In fact, actor Sikander Kher also expressed disappointment at Rohan Joshi’s comment. The Aarya actor shared his opinion, writing: “But after reading this about someone who passed away too soon, I’m just sad to see that a young man who might be funny and witty is probably missing a huge dose of humanity. #unhappy #discouraging and very #uncool PS: it took a lot of effort to be so polite.’

These are people who went even to pedophilia in the name of comedy, now taking advantage of a natural comedian who was widely respected

If the real stand-up comedy circle doesn’t raise their voice today against a bad apple like Rohan Joshi among them, then don’t blame tomorrow when someone boycotts your bona fide work, akin to the price many in Bollywood pay through no fault of their own, but a handful. . https://t.co/2lYK8wn3yl pic.twitter.com/TCtiPwSXnM
