Uorfi Javed schooled Sonali Kulkarni on Twitter over her recent remark on women.

In a recent press meet, Sonali Kulkarni said, “In India, we, at times, forget that a lot of women are just lazy. They want a boyfriend/husband, who earns well, owns a house, and his performance at work guarantees regular increments. But, in the middle of this, women forget to make a stand for themselves. Women don't know what will they do. I urge everyone to encourage women and make them self-dependent. So that they are capable enough to share the household expenses with their partners."

Singer Sona Mohapatra also commented on a tweet regarding Sonali’s clip and schooled her. She wrote, “True and truly sad. Check the matrimonial columns-wanted, good looking, educated, earning, ‘homely’ take care of in-laws, Hh duties and hand over monthly salary type of ads. Double whammy. The ‘insight’ she has is lazy & should have been qualified such – ‘in my circles’.”

Sonali was last seen in 2021 series Whistleblowers on SonyLiv. Recently, Uorfi marked her presence on designer duo Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla's latest collection launch event called 'Mera Noor Hai Mashoor'.
