A friendship that once appeared close between actor Sara Ali Khan and social media influencer Orhan Awatramani, known as Orry, has come under public scrutiny following a sequence of contentious social media interactions. Orry became embroiled in controversy after making sarcastic remarks about Sara in a reel, which many online users found insensitive and unnecessary. The incident has prompted renewed discussions regarding respect and accountability. Amid indirect jibes, here’s how the Orry–Sara fallout unfolded.
Sara and Orry’s fallout
The situation reportedly started after Orry posted a video on social media using the phrase “3 worst names,” listing Sara, Amrita, and Palak. The reference was widely interpreted as naming Sara Ali Khan, her mother Amrita Singh, and actor Palak Tiwari. The reel was later deleted after sparking significant backlash from online audiences who criticised the perceived targeting of these individuals.
Shortly after the incident, Sara Ali Khan and her brother Ibrahim Ali Khan unfollowed Orry on Instagram. When an Instagram user later asked Orry if he had also unfollowed Sara and Ibrahim, he responded, “Long ago, bro. They just caught up.” This exchange contributed to speculation about the status of their friendship.
Further controversy arose when a user commented, “Amrita aunty is very angry,” on one of Orry’s posts. Orry replied, “Put a glass of ice water on her head,” a comment that many interpreted as dismissive and that fueled additional criticism regarding his attitude towards Sara’s family.
Orry takes a dig at Sara
Another incident occurred on Monday, January 26, when Orry posted a reel inspired by a video from creator Amulya Rattan, in which she calls out a man for lacking civic sense while walking behind her as she filmed. However, it wasn’t the reel itself but Orry’s sarcastic response in the comments that grabbed attention and sparked backlash.
In the video, Orry wore a blue mesh top with a dotted bra outline printed on it. When an Instagram user asked, “Genuine question: What exactly is that bra holding together?”, Orry responded, “Sara Ali Khan’s hits.” The comment was widely seen as a pointed and unnecessary swipe at the actor’s career.
Sara’s cryptic response
In response to the online chatter, Sara Ali Khan shared an Instagram Story featuring Vikram Sarkar’s song Naam Chale. The lyrics, which spoke about living freely and avoiding unnecessary controversies, were interpreted by many as a subtle reference to the ongoing situation. However, neither Sara nor Orry has issued any official statement addressing the public fallout.
Internet calls Orry’s behaviour bullying
The exchanges and Orry’s comments have drawn condemnation from numerous online users. Some described his behavior as “bullying,” while others pointed out the cyclical nature of seeking attention through controversy. One Reddit user noted that Orry “thrives on attention” and suggested people stop interacting with his content, while another criticised the act of “mocking others while seeking relevance.”
How did it all start?
The strain between Orry and Sara also seems linked to an earlier controversy involving Palak Tiwari. Two years ago, an alleged WhatsApp exchange between Orry and Palak surfaced online, in which Palak appeared to apologise, reportedly “out of respect for Sara,” while Orry responded with a middle-finger emoji and declined to accept it.
Orry later addressed the backlash, implying that Palak had crossed a major boundary and only apologised after someone else stepped in. Although the exact reason behind their fallout was never disclosed, the episode had already suggested underlying tensions within the same social circle that includes Sara and Ibrahim.
