In the recent episodes of Splitsvilla 16, Nia Sharma called out Kaira Anu for making "body-shaming" remarks. Nia said, "You can’t comment on someone’s face or height. You should be ashamed of yourself. This is not who we are today. How can you say that about a girl while being a girl yourself? (sic)" The controversy rose when Keona revealed that Kaira made comments on her makeup and dark circles. In one of the fights, Kaira also commented on Niharika's height.

Shutting down the 'body-shaming' comment remark, Kaira took to her Instagram story to write, "Fairness means addressing all inappropriate behavior, not only one part of it (sic)." She further clarified in her post that she never called anyone "ugly or insulted appearance." Recalling what happened, Kaira said, "She had applied a foundation shade that was noticeably too light, and I said she should tone it down. The comment was about makeup, not her looks (sic)."

However, Kaira accepted that the heigh comment she made on Niharika was not ideal. But, she also claimed that people in Splitsvilla 16 also made comments like "fake foreigner" and "fake accent" to her. Calling out the makers for not showing the full context, Kaira ended her post saying, "I'm a human not a saint!! If my words are being judged, then the full context, including what was said and done to me, needs to be considered (sic)."

As Kaira clarified her part and apologised for making remark on Niharika's height, a user took it to a Reddit thread with title "kaira addresses the hate" saying, "the apology itself is giving bully vibes, she apologised for the sake of it and for the hate to end (sic)." Labeling Kaira "high school bully" one commented, "I don’t understand, someone shows u the middle finger, calls you a foreigner, and says you have a fake accent and you get the right to call them out on their looks? And height? Shit they can’t control ? High school bully fr (sic)."
