The signature Oscar music started playing in the background as soon as Guneet Monga took to speak.
The producer of the award-winning documentary had to forego her big moment at the Oscars.
While many discussed the same after the incident, a TikToker has clearly pointed out how Guneet was deprived of having her big moment on the international stage while other winners got their life's biggest chance to share their feelings.

In a video that has been doing the rounds on social media lately, TikTok user @/iam7evn sharing the same pointed out that although Guneet's speech was cut short, other award winners were not treated the same way.
There was a 45-second acceptance speech rule, but the video shows that the next set of award winners such as Charles Mackesy for the Best Animated Short
category and Matthew Freud for The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, and the Horse, went on to speak for more than 45 seconds. But, their speech wasn't cut off.
