Speaking to ANI, Kher was asked about comedians making fun of statements associated with Kashmiri Pandits and Biharis and about the broader debate around stand-up comedy on social media.
“Look, if I’ll tell you in terms of music, then music is not just a tune its something that can also make you laugh, its also a form of discipline. So, you should stay in music,” Kher said.
“If your music tune is not correct, then you may end in making fun of someone,” he added. Kher then stressed the importance of conduct and politeness.
“To islie manushye ko chaitanye me rehna chahie, tameez me rehna chahie… or apni apni tameez se sb baat krein, to sbko itna to pta hi hai kaise jeena hai, kese hasna hai or kese hsaana hai, kese kisi ka dil jeetna hai…” he said. (translation: So, a person should be alert, should be polite, and should talk to everyone politely. Everyone knows how to live, how to laugh, how to win the hearts of people.)
He also reflected on his own journey to fame, saying he had always tried to conduct himself politely. “I have always been polite,” he said, while acknowledging that popularity can bring criticism, envy and hostility.
“There will be critics, there will be haters, there will be jealous people. Then you will realise that you have come so far,” Kher said.
