Kajol Steps Away From Beef Controversy, Says She Ate Buffalo Meat

Kajol has issued a clarification after she was trolled for consuming beef at a friend’s restaurant.

The actress posted a video yesterday where she was served a dish made out of beef and she gleefully ate it. Soon enough, she was being called out for consuming the meat which has been banned in Maharashtra.

Kajol soon stepped into damage-control mode and deleted the video and the actress has now tweeted a clarification.


“ A video of me at a friend’s lunch said that there was a beef dish at the table. That’s a miscommunication. What was shown was Buffalo meat that is a legally available meat. I’m issuing this clarification because this is a sensitive matter that may hurt religious sentiments, which is not my intention,” Kajol said in the statement.

The consumption of cow meat has always been a sensitive matter and Kajol’s video got a lot of negative attention.

The actress shared the video on Facebook and Instagram. In the video, she was seen having lunch with her girl gang at a friend’s restaurant. In the video, Kajol asks her friend to explain the dish served to her and it turned out to be “beef, pepper water with dry lentils and dry beef”.

 Kajol’s angry detractors told her that it was not OK to eat cow meat even if she was abroad and it looks like the actress was shaken up by the negative comments. Such are the pitfalls of stardom!
