Bollywood actress Disha Patani's sister, ex-Army officer Khushboo Patani, has stirred a social media storm after a video surfaced showing her strongly criticising spiritual leader and religious orator Aniruddhacharya Maharaj over his controversial remarks about women in live-in relationships.
In the widely circulated clip on social media, Khushboo can be heard calling Aniruddhacharya's comments "inappropriate" and going so far as to label him a "ba***rd" for targeting women who choose to live with their partners outside of marriage.
Khushboo slams Aniruddhacharya
The outrage stems from Aniruddhacharya's statement while interacting with his followers. "Kehta hai, ladke laate hain 25 saal ki ladkiyon ko, jo 4-5 jagah mooh maar ke aati hain," he is allegedly heard saying in the video.
The comment has sparked backlash online, with many accusing him of promoting misogyny and moral policing.
Responding angrily, Khushboo said in a now-viral video, "Agar ye mere saamne hota, to mai isko samjhadeti ki mooh maarna kya hota hai. These are anti-nationalists. You should not be supporting such ba***ds of highest order. All the fu****g naamards of this society are following this ba***rd.

She continued her criticism, questioning the gender bias in the comment. "All the namards of the society are following this bast**d. He says ladkiyan jo live-in mein rehti hain, mooh maar ke aati hain. Usne ye kyu nahi bola ki ladke jo live-in mein rehte hain woh mooh marte hain? Kya ladki akele live-in mein rehti hai aur live-in mein rehna kya galat hai bhaiya?" Khushboo lashed out.

A few months back, Khushboo made headlines after she rescued an abandoned girl child in Bareilly, and won the hearts of netizens. A former Major in the Indian Army, Khushboo shared a video on her social media handle, in which she can be seen saving the little girl and rushing her to the hospital.
Khushboo consoled the crying child and carried her in her arms, all the while expressing frustration over her parents abandoning her. However, in a separate post, she clarified that the girl was not abandoned by the parents, but was rather kidnapped, and abandoned by the kidnappers later.
Post her exit from the Army, Khushboo is now a full-time wellness coach with over 15 years of experience in meditation practices. She also has a certification in nutrition and fitness training, and is a certified and experienced counsellor.
The 33-year-old also has an active Youtube channel where she posts videos about leading a healthy lifestyle, easy workouts, mental health, and similar topics. She shares those videos along with content on other social issues on her Instagram handle as well.
