Court Questions Hindustani Bhau’s Standing in Farah Khan Case: “Why Are You Hurt?”

The Bombay High Court recently questioned the involvement of YouTuber Vikas Fhatak, popularly known as Hindustani Bhau, in a plea against Bollywood choreographer Farah Khan. The case stems from alleged remarks made by Khan during the Holi festival.

Court Challenges Hindustani Bhau’s Plea

During the proceedings, the court directly addressed Hindustani Bhau, asking, “You’re not ‘chhapri,’ why are you hurt?” This question challenges Bhau’s perceived connection to the issue and his reason for filing the plea.

Background of the Case

While the specific details of Khan’s remarks and the nature of the plea haven’t been fully disclosed in this context, the court’s questioning highlights a key legal point: establishing standing. To bring a case before the court, a plaintiff must demonstrate they have been directly affected or harmed by the defendant’s actions.
