Shikhar Pahariya has always won hearts with his kind gestures, and his thoughtful opinions. Last year during Diwali, Shikhar shared a few pictures that featured him celebrating the festival with Janhvi Kapoor and a few furry friends. He had accompanied the post with a sweet caption, extending Diwali wishes to his social media family, who also responded with festive wishes. However, one user commented, “Lekin tu toh dalit hai”. Shikhar Pahariya did not miss a chance to grab the opportunity and extend personal thoughtful remarks over the comment.
Addressing the same, Shikhar Pahariya highlighted that India’s strength has always been in its diversity. His reply read, “It’s honestly pathetic that in 2025, there are still people like you with such a small, backward mindset. Diwali is a festival of light, progress, and unity, concepts that are clearly beyond your limited intellect. India’s strength has always been in its diversity and inclusivity, something you clearly fail to grasp. Maybe instead of spreading ignorance, you should focus on educating yourself because right now, the only thing truly ‘untouchable’ here is your level of thinking.”
By expressing kindness and a thought-provoking opinion, Shikhar Pahariya highlights that he’s a people person, who prioritizes unity irrespective of anyone’s age, gender, caste, religion, class, or background. Shikhar Pahariya’s thoughtful response is a striking reminder to celebrate India’s diversity and inclusivity, a nation that unites people coming from varied backgrounds.
