¡°Some words spoken by me during my seminar have hurt a few people. I just want to say one thing these are professional workshops, as in, they are attended by people from within our profession. When these sessions get very long, we have to make them humorous. What can I say? If you are truly hurt, I apologise from the bottom of my heart. Please forgive me, I am sorry," Jawed Habib can be heard saying in the video.
In the said video that got really viral, a woman was sitting on the salon chair while Habib was seen giving tips about hairdressing to people around in the seminar. While combing the woman's hair, the hairdresser casually spits on the hair of the woman, saying ¡®Agar paani ki kami hai na.. iss thook mein jaan hai.¡± (If there is a shortage of water, there is life in this spit.)

The National Commission for Women (NCW) on Thursday took to Twitter to say that its chairperson Rekha Sharma has written to the UP Director General of Police (DGP) seeking action in this regard.
"The commission has taken this incident very seriously and not only condemns this in strongest possible words but also seeks your urgent intervention in the matter to investigate the veracity of this viral video for immediate action as per law/procedure," the letter reads. The woman who got spat on also came forward and said that even she was surprised to see this gesture. She was so angry that she mentioned how she will never get a haircut by Jawed Habib even if she has to get a haircut from a local shop.
