Awez Darbar Critiques Nikhil Chinapa's Controversial Menopause Comments

Following his eviction from the reality show Alliance, hosted by Kunal Kemmu, Nikhil Chinapa found himself at the center of controversy after responding to Gauahar Khan's critique of his gameplay. In his defense, Chinapa stated that he had never personally met Gauahar and that his views were influenced by fellow contestant Zaid Darbar. However, his comments regarding menopause and perimenopause in relation to Gauahar sparked significant backlash from the public and social media users alike. Chinapa remarked, 'Perhaps Mini knows more about this topic since she frequently discusses menopause and perimenopause. She might have insights into why Gauahar expressed her opinions.' This statement was met with outrage, as many felt it trivialized a serious issue affecting women.

In the wake of Chinapa's remarks, Awez Darbar, who is married to Gauahar Khan's sister, took to Instagram to express his disapproval. In a video shared on his stories, Awez reflected on his own feelings after losing a reality show, saying, 'I was feeling bad after losing a reality show, and here is Nikhil Chinapa, who has been in the industry for 19 years, making such comments.' He criticized Chinapa's logic, questioning the relevance of his statements and emphasizing the need for men to be more considerate. Awez added, 'I may not know much about menopause, but I do know that men like you need to take a pause. Gauahar has already silenced you with her response, so I wish you the best for your 20th year in the industry. Do better.' This response highlights the growing sensitivity around discussions of women's health issues and the importance of respectful dialogue.
