Actor Ranvir Shorey has refused to apologise after a crude reply to a social media post sparked accusations of misogyny. The controversy began Wednesday when a light-hearted reel from his film Khosla Ka Ghosla 2 went viral, crossing 100 million views on Instagram. An X user reposted it with a sarcastic caption; Shorey responded with a crude remark. Since the user's profile had a woman's display picture, many accused him of being misogynistic. Speaking to Hindustan Times, Shorey said he replies to trolls in their language and will not be apologetic. He called the account a known toxic profile whose real gender is unknown. The episode then expanded as users dug into his personal life, including his marriage to Konkona Sen Sharma, and alleged he was rude to theatre staff. Shorey dismissed the claims as 'simply haters' and said he is done with the episode.
