Karan Johar supports Rhea Chakraborty, calls out Mallika Sherawat’s comment on jail term

At the Traitors reunion, Karan Johar confronted Mallika Sherawat over her comment about Rhea Chakraborty's jail term. During the show's Circle of Shaq, Munawar Faruqui accused Mallika of being too calm in the game, leading to a heated argument between Rhea and Mallika. Mallika responded to Rhea's explanation by telling Rhea, "Is this game about a comeback?

I would also then say, Oh, Rhea, you were in jail, and this is a big comeback for you." Karan Johar criticized Mallika's comment, stating, "Mallika, your line about Rhea's comeback went viral. Don't you think that particular line was perhaps below the belt?" Mallika later apologized to Rhea, acknowledging the severity of her comment in light of Rhea's personal struggles.
