Bharti Singh's old video with friend Jasmin Bhasin has gone viral and landed her in trouble.
In the video, she is seen joking about the advantages of having 'daadi mooch' (beard and moustache). The comedian says when you drink milk and put beard in your mouth, it tastes like sewaiyan. She also talks about men having lice in their beards.

The short clip has been going viral, especially the Sikh community, slam Bharti for disrespecting their beard and moustache.
Reacting to it in her new post, Bharti today clarified that her intentions were not to hurt any community. She said she has received the viral video from many people and requested everyone to not misjudge what she said.
Bharti said, "There's a video that's been going viral from the last 3 to 4 days claiming that I have made fun of 'daadi mooch'. I have seen the video repeatedly and request people to watch it too as I have not said anything against any religion or caste. I didn't mock any Punjabi or what problems happen when you keep 'daadi mooch'."
She added, "I was doing comedy with my friend but if it has hurt the sentiments of any section, I apologize with folded hands. I am a Punjabi myself, I was born in Amritsar and I'd always respect it. I am a proud Punjabi, too."
