Kajol and Twinkle’s ‘Two Much’ Faces Social Media Criticism: Viewers Label It “Unnecessary” and “Try Hard”
Kajol and Twinkle Khanna’s new chat show, “Two Much With Kajol and Twinkle,” aimed to provide a candid platform for celebrity discussions. However, the show has quickly become a target of social media backlash due to several controversial remarks made by the hosts and their guests. Viewers have expressed their discontent, labeling the show as “unnecessary” and “try hard,” as clips of the contentious comments circulate online.
Controversial Remarks Spark Outrage
The backlash began when a popular social media page, The Indian Idiot, shared a compilation of controversial statements from the show. Among the most criticized remarks was Twinkle Khanna’s comment on modern dating, where she stated, “Today’s kids change their partners faster than they change their outfits,” adding that she believes this is a positive trend. This comment, along with her quip to guest Ananya Panday about Gen Z being “traumatized by everything,” has drawn significant ire from viewers who found the remarks dismissive and insensitive.
Other guests also contributed to the controversy. Chunky Panday’s suggestion that every married couple should have a joint bank account prompted Twinkle to jokingly label him a “Joru ka Ghulaam.” Kajol’s views on marriage, suggesting it should have an “expiry date and a renewal option,” further fueled the criticism. She explained that this would prevent prolonged suffering in unhappy marriages. Additionally, Kajol’s assertion that actors work harder than traditional 9-to-5 employees has also been met with backlash, as many viewers felt it trivialized the struggles of everyday workers.
Social Media Reaction
The online response to the show’s clips has been overwhelmingly negative. Many users took to social media to voice their disapproval, with comments such as “Twinkle Khanna making Sonam Kapoor look good” and “They should have named it ‘Too Much by Twinkle and Kajol’” dominating discussions. Viewers have described the show as “unnecessary” and criticized it for trying too hard to be relatable and humorous. The harsh feedback indicates that many feel the show has crossed boundaries of sensitivity and appropriateness.
In addition to the comments mentioned, other clips have also contributed to the controversy. One moment featured Twinkle joking with Kriti Sanon about not allowing guests to “spread their legs” on the show, while another involved her dismissing the permanence of tattoos and marriages. These remarks have only intensified the scrutiny surrounding the show, leading to questions about its format and the intentions behind it.
Impact on the Show’s Future
Despite its initial intent to celebrate unfiltered celebrity banter, “Two Much With Kajol and Twinkle” now faces a significant challenge in addressing the backlash. The negative reception may impact the show’s future, as viewers express their dissatisfaction with the content and tone. The criticism suggests that the show may need to reassess its approach to ensure it resonates positively with its audience.
As the conversation continues online, it remains to be seen how the hosts will respond to the backlash and whether they will adjust the show’s format or content in light of viewer feedback. The situation highlights the delicate balance that talk shows must maintain between candidness and sensitivity, especially when addressing topics that resonate deeply with audiences.
