RJ Malishka failed to understand the stature of the person she was interviewing as she decided to perform a mujra for Neeraj Chopra
The standards of media in India are fast dwindling. From channels giving terrorists from the Taliban a platform to wash their crimes, left based journalists of the Lutyens turning a blind eye to the atrocities committed by a particular community and horrid fake news being rampantly spread, journalism is merely reduced to doing what your master bids you to.
Leaving politics aside, the remainder of the spectrum hasn’t fared any better as well. Some of the recent interviews taken of Tokyo Olympics gold medal winner Neeraj Chopra have made ford abysmal viewing with the athlete being questioned about everything under the sun apart from his sporting triumph.
However, even by the low standards they have set for themselves, RJ Malishka and Red FM’s antics on Thursday managed to sink into an entirely new soup. Conducting an online interview with the gold medalist, Malishka and her fellow women compatriots from the radio channel decided it was prudent to try and woo Neeraj Chopra prior to interviewing him.

Holding roses in their hands, they were seen dancing infront of the camera infront of a visibly embarrassed and uncomfortable Neeraj Chopra. However, things didn’t step there with Malishka asking Neeraj to give him a hug, one the army man decided to suitably distance himself from.
Ladiesssss..Yes I got the hard hitting, deep answers too but..Take the first 4 secs before the cam moves to the zoom call to guess who we are dancing for😇 😉 #udejabjabzulfeinteri and then tell me I did it for all of us😄 #gold #olympics #neerajchopra @RedFMIndia @RedFM_Mumbai pic.twitter.com/SnEJ99MK31

The horrendous cringeworthy show has been lambasted since with people on Twitter lashing out at Malishka who has since gone onto close the comments to her video. It doesn’t need a genius to fathom the backlash this video would have encountered had it been men trying to croon a woman athlete.
