Actor Sivakartikeyan is being slammed by netizens for his comments on Koreans during his speech at a recent school event.
A clip from the event is doing the rounds on the internet and the actor is heard saying how all Korean actors look the same. He also recreated a scene from his latest movie 'Don' in which he is seen imitating Korean language and accent.
He said, ‘Whenever I see Korean films, I feel like all the actors in them are the same. Sometimes it’s hard to tell the heroes from the heroines.’
The actor, who has featured in movies like ‘Remo’ and ‘Doctor’, was speaking at a cultural event in a school in Trichy.
The scene comprises of Sivakarthikeyan and Soori talking in a gibberish language.
Netizens have slammee the actor's comments.
A user shared the video, and wrote, ‘Sivakarthikeyan mocks Korean language (based on that racist “comedy” sequence from Don), says all Koreans look alike, and their women look like men. All these during an event at a school, in front of kids! Our celebrities badly need to attend special sensitisation workshops! (sic)’
Sivakartikeyan has not yet responded to the trolls.
He will next be seen in a Tamil-Telugu bilingual, 'Prince'. He also has 'Ayalan' and 'Maaveeran' in pipeline.
