Kirti Kulhari’s statement and reaction on social media

Kirti Kulhari controversy: Famous Bollywood actress Kirti Kulhari is once again in the news. After one of his old interviews went viral, netizens have reacted strongly to him. Kirti’s statement regarding monthly salary of Rs 10,000 for domestic workers in Mumbai has angered people. Well-known TV personality Mini Mathur has also expressed her opinion on this issue.

Kirti’s statement on salary of Rs 10,000

In an old interview, Kirti told that she has bought a new house on Yari Road and was surprised to hear the rates for domestic help there. She said, ‘I wanted the maid to do the work of sweeping, mopping, utensils, dusting and washing clothes in two hours. When the maid asked for Rs 10,000, I felt it was not fair.

Kirti also said that she felt that perhaps more money was being asked for considering her financial condition. His statement has spread rapidly on social media, where many users are calling it the thinking of the rich. People are also saying that in an expensive city like Mumbai, the salary of domestic workers should be fair. Many women are sharing their difficulties, how hard they work and still do not get their salaries on time.


On this controversy, Mini Mathur clearly said, ‘This is less than the minimum wage.’ This statement of his is also going viral rapidly. However, some people have also come in support of Kirti, saying that in these times of inflation, everyone follows their budget. Asking Rs 10,000 for two hours of work may be reasonable, especially if the quality of work is not satisfactory. But most people are of the opinion that the hard work of domestic workers should not be underestimated. The cost of living in Mumbai is very high and these working people support their families by working in many households.

This controversy again highlights the issue of rights, pay and dignity of domestic workers. Kirti Kulhari’s statement, no matter how old, has touched the emotions of people in today’s time. There is no new statement from the actress yet on this viral controversy.
