<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Who can forget Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul's controversial Koffee with Karan episode, which was later pulled down from Disney+ Hotstar because of the 'inappropriate' comments made by the two cricketer guests?

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In an interview on WTF with Nikhil Kamath, Rahul shared, "The interview was a different world. That changed me. Completely changed me. I was a very shy, soft-spoken boy growing up. Then I played for India and became very confident. I had no problem being in a huge group of people. People would know I have been in a room of 100 people because I would talk to everyone."</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He continued, "Now I don't (do that) because that (KWK) interview scarred me massively. Getting suspended from the team&mdash;I have never been suspended in school, I have never been punished in school. Matlab woh hua hi nahi hai mere saath (All this never happened to me). I don't know how to handle it. I did mischievous things in school, like chota mota (small things), but nothing to get me expelled from school or make my parents come. That (KWK interview and subsequent backlash) was my first (fall), and then you realize how bad it is."</span></p>
