Shock, Horror! Even Bips has to deal with racist British
Posted on May 16th, 2007 by tigger under Arshad Warsi, Bipasha Basu, John Abraham, Vivek OberoiYou know, you’d think we live in a society where it’s totally OK for gays to get married, but it doesn’t stop people from racially abusing Blacks, Indian’s and any race that isn’t yours. Even the famous ones get dissed.
That’s what happened to Bipasha Basu and Arshad Warsi when they were in London shooting Goal.
Bips says “It was nothing major, but while Arshad and I were shooting, two white guys started rapping some song which poked fun at Indians.
Initially I was a bit shocked; I have never heard such things in my life. But then I thought forget it, time to move on. No point stressing over it.â€
When asked what kind of remarks, Vivek says, “John, Bipasha, Arshad and many others used to shoot for long football sequences and that was very ugly. These goras used to pass many remarks about our skin colour, the fact that we are Indians and the superiority complex they had.
There have been times when I have heard racist comments such as ‘Bloody Indian’ and ‘Go back to your country’. However, I have always managed to keep my unit calm enough to never react. I have always told them to concentrate on their work rather than get in to an ugly war of words.”.
I’m sorry you had to go through that Bips and John, you know, since you’re so beautiful, but there’s always stupid people out there.
