Filmmaker Farah Khan, who inaugurated the 15th showroom here of wall paper dealers Marshalls, says that singer Papon is a good human being but his video in which he is seen kissing a minor girl made her feel uncomfortable.

“I know Papon and he is a good guy, but there is no doubt when I saw the video it made me uncomfortable,” said Farah.

In a video that went viral on social media, Papon is seen celebrating Holi with the contestants of the singing reality show The Voice India Kids. The artiste, who is also one of the judges on the show, can be seen planting a kiss on the minor girl’s lips.

Talking more about the video, Farah said: “I don’t think he meant to do it, but if it was my daughter, I would not like it. I think people should not touch other people’s children. Just show affection to your own children. I think he meant in a right way.”

Farah further says that if you see the girl in the video, she looked uncomfortable.

“If you see the girl’s face after it happened, you will realize how uncomfortable she was, but like I said, he is not a mad person to do it while the camera is going. He must have genuinely meant it, but it didn’t give me a good feeling,” said the Om Shanti Om filmmaker.
