Only Indian media can come up with such a stupid take. It wasn't scripted. Just because the Academy hasn't taken away his award doesn't mean it was a setup. The Academy gave an award to a pedophile after he escaped the US to avoid conviction. This was nothing compared to that.

Why Indian media? Its there all over. When I saw the video it looked quite filmi. Considering their lifestyles I am surprised he will get angry at someone calling his wife names. Initially he was laughing then the camera moved away & all of a sudden he's walking towards the podium.

Based on what i have been reading, he only got up when he noticed the face of his wife. The whole thing with his marital relationship is a whole story of its own. He should really get into therapy if he is not doing it already. Ab to Oscar bhi mil gaya. Ab personal issues resolve karne chahiye.

He was laughing before he got up, he didn't get the reference most likely until he saw his wife's frown face.
