Mumbai: Actor Aadar Jain’s ‘time pass’ comment about his ex-girlfriends, including actress Tara Sutaria, during his wedding festivities created a flutter across social media.
The actor recently opened up about his controversial comment and clarified that his statement was misconstrued.
“There are so many false narratives, false assumptions, but no fact-checkers. Unfortunately, what happens is when people make up stories and say certain things, the people who get affected are the people involved and their families. In this scenario, from day one, there’s been so many things written. Out of respect, everyone has been silent about it. People then take liberty to say what they want. It’s unfair for her (pointing towards Alekha) and her family, me and my family, her (directing at Tara) and her family. Obviously, there’s no truth to any of it,” Aadar was quoted as saying by The Times of India.
“Whatever’s been written, there is no truth behind any of it… They misconstrued what I said and took 10 seconds of it. Then, people form their own opinions about it. People have made it out to be something else and directed towards someone else. My parents always taught me to respect my past, my present and now my future. So that is how we have been brought up and we never meant to direct it towards anyone. I would not think of anyone else when I’m getting married. It’s unfortunate what happened. But there’s no truth behind any of it,” he added.
In the viral video clip from his wedding festivities, Aadar was heard saying, “I have always loved her and I have always wanted to be with her. So she sent me on this long journey of 20 years through time-pass. It was worth the wait because I get to marry this beautiful, beautiful woman, who looks like a dream. I love you, and it was worth the wait. It’s a secret, I have always loved her. I have done time pass for four years of my life. But now I’m with you, baby.”
The statement sparked outrage across social media and netizens called out the actor for his ‘time pass’ remark.
