‘Tameez nahi hai to ghar pe raho’: Dhruv Rathee rips into Indian content creators amid Malik Swashbuckler row
In a video, Dhruv Rathee discussed the Malik Swashbuckler row and added other instances of Indians being caught on camera misbehaving.
Dhruv Rathee slammed Indian content creators who misbehave with women in foreign countries or have total disregard for civic sense while abroad. This came amid the Malik Swashbuckler row. Content creator Malik SD Khan faced severe backlash and was reportedly detained by Turkish authorities after videos showing him disrespecting women and making derogatory remarks about them surfaced online.
“Indian Tourists are Destroying India’s Reputation,” Rathee wrote while posting a video. The clip starts with a snippet from one of Khan's videos where he asks his audience if he should get a Turkish woman drunk and rape her. As Rathee’s video progresses, it shows other clips that capture Indians disrespecting foreigners.

In his video, he also mentioned the incidents where a few Indian men were caught peeing in the sea in Thailand and the one where a tourist leaned out of his car to touch a lion during a safari - risking his life and that of others.
Rathee called out such content creators and asked them not to visit foreign countries if they could not behave appropriately. “Tameez nahi hai to ghar pe raho,” he continued.
Take a look at Dhruv Rathee’s video:
