He then asked, being Pakistani, do they understand their jokes? After getting an affirmative reply, Gaurav quipped, 'Toh tumhe samajh nahi aata, nahi milega tumhe? Itne saalon se keh rahe hain nahi milega, nahi milega, phir aa jaate ho tum (So you don't understand? You won't get it.. We've been saying it for years – still, you keep coming).' It was his subtle remark on the Kashmir situation.
The internet has a mixed reaction
While some of the netizens were left in splits as they laughed at every punch, there was a fraction that didn't agree with Gaurav's style.
One user wrote, 'Nahi Milega was brilliant.' Another mentioned, 'He was hesitating while roasting him… but he still did it gracefully.'
Meanwhile, a user quoted, 'It was not required! Respect the guy who came to watch your show. It's a very sensitive subject currently – don't blow it off like this.'
'What a missed opportunity, @gaurav_comic! You could have actually celebrated their presence at your show as fans and admirers, despite the politics and government propaganda. People in both countries are simply striving to make a living, seeking peace and harmony. We can't deny that we have more in common than what the political narrative suggests,' read another comment.
