Popular Bengali singer, Rupankar Bagchi had dug his own grave by bad-mouthing the late singer, Krishnakumar Kunnath, popularly known as KK. Rupankar’s harsh comment stating ‘other singers are better than KK’ on a Facebook live video was not received well by a larger section of society. Hence, he had fallen prey to nasty trolls and backlash. The Bengali singer had even received death threats despite deleting the controversial video from his Facebook feed.
Now, his wife, Chaitali Bagchi reacted to her hubby’s foolish behaviour and called him ‘boka’ (naive). She also revealed how she is concerned for the safety of her two young daughters after seeing the current rage of the audience against the Bagchi family. Reportedly, the couple has also appointed private security guards at their residence.
