Overview
- A short video from a wedding shows Kaushal prompting a 'How’s the josh?' call-and-response before joking that bachelors’ enthusiasm stays high while married people’s enthusiasm drops year by year.
- The clip first circulated on Reddit and then spread across social platforms, with mainstream outlets including Hindustan Times and News18 reporting on the reaction.
- Social-media users labeled the remarks misogynistic and outdated, with several calling the bit 'cringe' and saying such jokes indirectly insult spouses.
- Some commenters argued that other married stars like Ranbir Kapoor or Ranveer Singh would have faced harsher criticism for a similar joke.
- Coverage noted Kaushal’s public profile with Katrina Kaif, whom he married in 2021, and their son Vihaan born in November 2025, as context for the disappointment expressed online.
