Rohan Joshi apologises after being trolled for his post on Raju Srivastava

Stand-up comedian Atul Khatri took to social media on Wednesday (September 21) and expressed grief over Raju Srivastava’s demise. While Atul was all praise for Raju, a comment on his post went viral for wrong reasons. The comment was made by AIB-fame comic Rohan Joshi. Rohan wrote, “We haven’t lost a thing…Raju Srivastava took every opportunity he ever got to run down new comics, especially after the wave of stand-up started. He went on every news channel and criticised upcoming artistes, and called their comedy offensive just because he couldn’t understand it, and that new stars were rising. He might have told a few good jokes, but he understood nothing about the spirit of comedy or defending someone’s right to say something even if you don’t agree.”
