From his racist remark towards Chum Darang to roasting Salman Khan; Times when Elvish Yadav made headlines for his derogatory remarks

Elvish Yadav, a popular YouTuber and reality show winner, has often found himself at the center of controversies due to his bold and unfiltered opinions. From making a racist remark about actress Chum Darang to taking a dig at Bollywood superstar Salman Khan in a roast video, his statements have repeatedly sparked backlash and debate. While his outspoken nature has earned him a massive following, it has also led to heated discussions on social media. Here’s a look at the times Elvish Yadav made headlines for his derogatory remarks.

In a podcast with Rajat Dalal, Elvish Yadav made offensive remarks about actress and Bigg Boss 18 finalist Chum Darang. He questioned another contestant’s interest in her and labeled her name as “ashleel” (vulgar). This led to significant backlash, with many condemning his comments as racist and disrespectful.

In September 2023, Elvish generated controversy by misgendering actor Arjun Bijlani as “a woman.” This statement was deemed offensive and inappropriate, attracting extensive criticism and condemnation. These incidents highlight a pattern of derogatory remarks by Elvish Yadav, leading to widespread criticism and calls for accountability.

Elvish Yadav had made headline over his mean remarks towards the media in Bigg Boss 18. After a few journalists asked him questions about Rajat, he indicated that they are biased and called them ‘paid media.’ He said, “Maine ye sab bohot dekha hai, sab paid media hai. Rajat, Avinash and Vivian ke khilaf ittne questions aagaye but Laran ke against nahi hai, because this is what paid media is.” This comment not only made the journalists angry but also the audience.

A 2019 roast video by YouTuber Elvish Yadav targeting Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has resurfaced, igniting a heated debate among fans on social media. In the video, Elvish made several controversial statements about the actor, including calling him a criminal. In the vlog, Elvish remarked, “The whole Bollywood Industry is afraid of Salman Khan, nobody came in support when he ate Vivek Oberoi’s career. He has only launched women in the Industry. He helps the needy and also runs his car over them. He has a hit-and-run and blackbuck case on his head and is still roaming freely. He also helps other criminals like Sooraj Pancholi.”

During the same podcast where he insulted Chum Darang, Elvish, along with Rajat Dalal, made derogatory comments about Bigg Boss 18 contestant Eisha Singh. They insinuated that men marry women like her because they need a maid, reflecting deep-seated misogyny.

Elvish faced criticism for making sexist and insulting comments directed at comedian and actor Kusha Kapila. His remarks were widely regarded as online abuse and bullying, sparking substantial controversy and disapproval from the online community.
