Uorfi Javed described how some ‘wealthy celebrities’ appear to be from a middle-class or underprivileged background. Netizens reacted to her statement.
Uorfi Javed began her acting career in 2016 and has since been in a number of television series. Following her appearances in daily soaps, she competed in Bigg Boss OTT season 1. However, the actress is currently most known for her eccentric fashion choices. She has gotten both praise and criticism for her unconventional costumes. Uorfi recently spoke with Instant Bollywood on Bollywood superstars, Cannes, and a variety of topics.
Uorfi Javed says it upsets her when rich celebrities pretend to belong in the middle class
While speaking, the host asked the social media sensation to identify things in Bollywood that she finds strange or phoney and wants to alter. Uorfi instantly responded to the question, stating that when wealthy celebrities claim to have a very middle-class or disadvantaged childhood. She went on to say that these stars would indicate that they used to fly in economy, whereas those from the middle class, such as herself, would never see planes. In her words, “When celebrities, these rich celebrities pretend that they had a very middle-class or poor upbringing. It irritates me to the core. We know you are rich. ‘Hum bilkul middle class the, humne kabhi first-class fly nahi kiya, hum economy fly karte the.’ Arey humne kabhi plane nahi dekha tha yaar. Tum kaisi baatein kar rahe ho yaar. When rich celebrities act like middle class, they so want to relate to the audience ki ‘main gareeb thi’. Or even celebrities act middle class right now, ki main kharcha nahi karti, main kanjoos hun, toh kyu hi kama rahi ho, natak pasand nahi hai mujhe. Just be yourself.”
Netizens reacted to Uorfi Javed’s statement
This portion from the interview was posted on the discussion platform Reddit with the heading ‘No Sara harmed here’. Other Redditors quickly responded to Uorfi’s statement. A person said, “She is so right, it’s very irritating, and honestly, these celebs think it will make them relatable, which is absolutely wrong.” Another person added, “Not just Sara, but every celebrity ever, including Alia, Kareena, Ranveer, Parineeti, etc. I’ll never understand why everyone insists on cosplaying as middle-class or impoverished. Meanwhile, a third netizen noted, “Sara is definitely not harmed here; it is directed at Soni Razdan and Alia.”

Finally, the host requested the actress to rate Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s first look for Cannes 2024. The Bollywood star was dressed in a Falguni Shane Peacock gown with intricate golden embroidery. Uorfi was sceptical at first, but later rated her an eight out of 10. Uorfi complimented Aishwarya’s appearance, saying,
“That is a trick question, yahan thoda mamla…but I think because it’s Aishwarya, everything looks good on her, I would still give it an eight.”
