Bihar teacher reportedly suspended after ‘man-hater’ remarks on Samay Raina's India’s Got Latent

Sakshi Jha, a teacher from Bihar who recently appeared on the Netflix show "India's Got Latent Season 2," has reportedly been suspended from her teaching position following a significant backlash over her audition remarks. The controversy erupted after clips of her performance circulated widely on social media.

“

Hi, I am Sakshi, and I am a man-hater… Basically, I get a kick out of wrecking men’s egos.

During her comedy set, Jha introduced herself as a "man-hater" and stated her life goal was "to beat her husband after drinking." She further elaborated, "I get a kick out of wrecking men’s egos," and expressed that "in this generation, being a woman is trauma."

“

Mere dost kehte hain ke Sakshi, tu bahut lame hai. Thik hai main hun. Mujhe lagta hai ke main bada aadmi ban hi nahi sakti, main kitna bhi try kar lun, kyunki main toh ek aurat hoon na yaar… Aur iss generation mein aurat hona trauma hai trauma. I literally don’t hate any caste, but I hate mard.

The judges on the show gave Jha zero points for her performance, and her comments quickly drew criticism from viewers. However, host Samay Raina urged viewers to show kindness towards Jha, acknowledging her impact on the episode. He stated, "If Sakshi hadn't come on the show, we wouldn't have had such a solid episode. You have to give her credit; she made the episode what it was."

“

Iss episode ke abhi main sab reactions dekh raha hun, poore internet pe. Bahut zyada memes ban rahe hain Sakshi Jha ‘men-hater’ ke. Toh, bas ek request hai mere ‘menz’ ke liye, just be kind to her.

While reports of Jha's suspension have circulated, an official statement or suspension order from the Bihar government or its education department has not yet been publicly verified by news outlets.

“

I feel that if Sakshi hadn't come on the show, we wouldn't have had such a solid episode. You have to give her credit; she made the episode what it was. So send her love, and spread kindness and compassion.
