Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleSharon Verma has left the internet talking with her "weak independent" woman joke in India's Got Latent Season 1. She is once again back with a bang, and just the promos of her appearance on Season 2 of the show have received a lot of attention. Interestingly, the former contestant is now back as a panellist. Meanwhile, her sharp-witted reply to Samay Raina about the Bihar-Kashmir comparison has won praise as well as criticism online.
Sharon Verma went viral after her stint on India's Got Talent Season 1. But before that, she had already been a part of the creative industry. According to her professional profile, she has worked at companies like Disney+ Hotstar (now JioHotstar), The Rabbit Hole, Hashtag Orange, and Ustraa. In fact, Sharon used to work in content creation and copywriting before she moved towards stand-up comedy.
She became famous when she appeared on India's Got Talent Season 1 as a contestant and introduced herself as a "weak independent woman". Needless to say, the phrase intrigued both the judges and the audience. Eventually, when Samay asked her the meaning of the word, she shared that she did have generational wealth and was forced to become an independent woman. However, she was struggling with it, which means she could have become dependent at any point, which left everyone in splits.
Overall, Sharon's deadpan delivery, relatable observations and self-deprecating humour were admired by one and all. The clips from the show immediately went viral and helped her to build a loyal fan following. Since then, she has performed in several live shows and released many stand-up videos, earning a large following on social media.
In fact, the most important milestone in Sharon's career has been her latest appearance on the latest episode of India's Got Talent Season 2. After a special journey, she is back as a panelist in the new season. She now sat between renowned personalities like Archana Puran Singh and Samay Raina. At the same time, once again, her chemistry with Samay Raina has become one of the episode's biggest highlights.
One of the promos from the new episode recently grabbed attention. It was about an exchange between Sharon and Samay where the latter jokes about her Bihari roots. He was trying to joke lightly when he said:
"You know, Sharon Verma is a Bihari who came to Mumbai in search of a job. Just Bihari things."
However, using her quick wit, Sharon replied, "At least I left my state by my choice." The joke aimed at Samay's Kashmiri background left him speechless in a rare moment. Within a few minutes, the clip went viral and got the attention of internet users. Many people praised Sharon for matching Samay's comic timing and confidently roasting him.
However, things soon moved beyond comedy when some people argued that it touched on sensitive historical and regional issues. They felt that the joke crossed a line. Although the debate has left netizens divided, Sharon has certainly grown in her career with sheer authenticity and confidence.
