Singer and Indian Idol season 11 judge Neha Kakkar slammed comedians Gaurav Gera and Kiku Sharda for body-shaming her during a TV show.

In the video, Gaurav plays a female nurse and Kiku plays a doctor. The characters address a short girl as 'Neha Kankar' and 'Chotu'. There is also reference to a song sung by Neha, and Kiku tells the girl that she gets paid for singing 'kuch bhi'. Lashing out at the comedians, Neha posted about her disappointment, on Instagram stories.

"Shame on these people to create such a NEGATIVE and insulting content! My people know how much I appreciate comedy on me and otherwise but this one is Ridiculous!!! Stop using my name, Stop enjoying, dancing and acting on my songs if you hate me so much. Thankless people. Itna zyada enjoy karte ho mere songs pe, you have such good times, you’ve partied so hard on my songs, you’ve made you GF BF hear my love songs, uske baad bhi itna bura likhte hue ho mere liye? Sharam nahin aati?,” she wrote.

Neha's brother Tony Kakkar also reacted to the act. Sharing a video of the show on Instagram, he wrote: “This is how you respect a small town girl who achieved everything on her own with so much struggle in life. Being a short girl My sister has already suffered a lot. Do you understand what a person goes through when you make fun about her/his body size or shape.””

Later, Neha took to Instagram to thank her fans for the support. “I was broken yesterday, but not today,” she wrote.
