Coronavirus has already made inroads into India after impacting China in a big way. Everyone is looking for ways to stay clear of the virus. Obviously nobody expects you to make light of a disease which has already claimed lives. Arshad Warsi did so and is getting trolled by the Twitterati. Arshad shared a scene from his movie Munnabhai MBBS where he can be seen taking a Chinese guy to Sanjay Dutt's medical college as he needed a dead body to learn dissection. While Arshad found it funny, Twitterati felt deeply offended. Have Not Proved Myself at All in the Film Industry: Arshad Warsi
Many called him out for sharing such a joke in a day and age like today. Many called him racist and insensitive. Honestly, this scene was always racist, be it now or then. But guess people are more aware of it than they were back then.

This is how people on Twitter are slamming the actor...
It’s a good scene from an epic movie. But in the context here, you do know that It’s racist. Right?

Incredibly racist! You and you're friends.

Shame on you!
Racist tweet. Not sense of humour during crisis time. Can't expect decency with out off touch of Bollywood people. #Shame

We wonder if Arshad Warsi realises what he has done. Dude, people are dying and you decided to continue with your stereotypical thinking about Chinese people!
