Sai Dharam Tej Calls Out Youtuber Over 'Gruesome' Joke On Child, Demands Action: 'Monsters Like These...'

Sai Dharam Tej recently reacted to a YouTuber’s joke about children. The Telugu actor used his (X) account to urge Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu and Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan to take strong measures to ensure child safety. Sai highlighted inappropriate sexual references in a YouTube video featuring a father and daughter.

Sai quote tweeted the video and wrote, “This is beyond gruesome, disgusting and scary. Monsters like these go unnoticed on the very much utilised social platform doing child abuse in the disguise of so-called Fun & Dank. Child Safety is the need of the hour. (folded hands emoji) I sincerely request Hon’ble Chief Minister of Telangana @revanth_anumala & Deputy CM @Bhatti_Mallu Garu, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh @ncbn Garu & Deputy CM @PawanKalyan Garu & @naralokesh Garu to take necessary action to curb horrific acts like this in the future.”

In another message, the Tollywood actor urged parents to be careful about sharing videos or pictures of their kids online. He warned that social media can be risky and advised everyone to stay cautious. He added, “To those people who have stooped to such a low standard, I hope that you never get to experience the turmoil of a parent due to your hurtful comments.”

The YouTuber said sorry and removed the problematic part from the video. He wrote, ” “Edited out the problematic part from the video. Unconditionally and unambiguously apologetic about the lapse in judgement. As a creator, my attempt is always to put a smile. Unfortunately, this time I have crossed the line between what is dark and what is distasteful.”
