Rohit Roy’s blunt ‘dustbin medium’ jab set off a firestorm that forced him to explain himself.
He told ANI that the remark was about the sheer volume of low‑quality content, not about anyone in particular.
A handful of younger actors—three or four, according to Rohit—took the headline out of context, launching personal attacks that left the veteran unsettled.
A 30‑year career that saw him grace shows like Swabhimaan and Bhabhi, and films such as Kaabil, informs his stance; he now turns to Netflix’s Chumbak to keep the conversation alive.
