Held on March 27, the 94th Oscar Awards was quite an event this year, with Will Smith snatching all the attention by smacking comedian Chris Rock in the face. The internet was flooded with reactions to the incident with fans and celebrities posting on their respective social media handles.

Bollywood celebrities too posted their reactions to the event. Actor Varun Dhawan shared the clip on his Instagram story and wrote, “Wow didn’t expect that also @chrisrock has a chin.” Neetu Kapoor shared a picture of the moment on her Instagram Story and wrote, “And they say women can never control their emotions.”

Sophie Choudry shared her reaction on Twitter by writing, “Violence is never the way but cracking jokes about someone’s medical condition should not be acceptable either. This was supposed to be a career-high for one of my favourite artists for a superb performance. Instead he’ll remembered for this crazy incident.”
Kangana Ranaut in her latest social media post defended the actor. Sharing a picture of the moment on her Instagram Stories, Kangana expressed her support for Will Smith and said she would have also taken the same step if she was in Will’s situation. She wrote, “If some idiot used my mom or sister’s illness to make bunch of fools laugh I would slap him like @willsmith did,” Kangana wrote, adding clapping emojis.
