Paritosh Tripathi said, "It was done in a light manner"
Comedian Paritosh Tripathi, who features with Kettan Singh on the comedy show Madness Machayenge, reacted after Karan Johar slammed their show. Hours after comedian Kettan Singh issued an apology as his mimicry offended Karan Johar, Paritosh Tripathi told Hindustan Times that they never wanted to "offend or hurt" anyone. Paritosh Tripathi told Hindustan Times, "None of the comedians on the show mean to offend or hurt anyone. That is never the intention behind what we do. We just want to make people laugh, and use our comic skills to do that."
Talking about Kettan Singh's admiration for Karan Johar, Paritosh said, "In fact, Kettan is such a big fan of Karan sir. When someone does mimicry of someone, it shows how that person admires the other person... It shows how they notice every detail, emotion and action of the person. With the show, we don't want to offend anyone or want people to get the perception that we are hurting others."
To prove his point Paritosh cited an example from his own performance and said, "I roast people on the show in front of them, and they know from where it all is coming from. We maintain a boundary, and never cross that line. That being said, the whole team just wants Karan to know that we didn't want to offend him. It was done in a light manner."
