Summary
- Orry used a derogatory slur for transgender people in an Instagram video

- Orry has faced previous controversies for insensitive comments about public figures
On November 9th, 2025, popular internet personality Orhan Awatramani, known as Orry, found himself at the center of a new controversy. Orry, who is known for his quirky social media presence and glamorous friend circle, landed in hot water after he used a casteist and transphobic slur in an Instagram video.
The clip, which has since been deleted, showed two transgender women, reportedly actors, playfully fighting on a reality show. Orry's caption for the video sparked outrage online, as he referred to the women using the derogatory term "chakka," a slur commonly used to demean the transgender community.
Social media users were quick to slam Orry for his insensitive and mocking behavior. One user wrote, "This is EMBARRASSING, Orry! Using a slur that's used daily to demean a community is LOW." Another commented, "When you benefit from queer culture and then mock it - that's hypocrisy at its peak."
