Yuvika Chaudhary, who rose to fame with Bigg Boss 9, was arrested on Monday in connection with allegedly using a casteist slur in a video, as per reports in Times Of India. The actress, who was booked under the SC/ST Act, was later granted interim bail by the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
Yuvika had shot a video with her husband, Prince Narula, where he was seen getting ready. To describe how bad she looked, Yuvika had used a casteist slur, which did not go down well with social media users. Following the incident, Yuvika apologized to her fans on social media. But she was booked by the Haryana Police in May on a complaint by a Dalit rights activist.
Ashok Bishnoi, the lawyer who is representing Yuvika Chaudhary, was quoted as saying by ANI, “My client has joined the investigation as per the guidelines given by the High Court and she is on interim bail now (in a case of alleged offensive remarks against Scheduled Castes on a social media platform).”
