The crowd at the rally was jubilant over the sexist jibe made by the former Parliamentarian. They clapped and laugh at such a statement meant to demean the work of a lady politician. Earlier as well the former Chief Minister and Rashtriya Janata Dal(RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav targeted her by referring to the road of Bihar being as smooth as the cheeks of Hema Malini.

The Union Minister Anurag Thakur in a statement reported by ANI said "Jayant Chaudhary can; become Hema Malini even if he wanted to. She is an actress and politician, who has a stand in the country and the world. Hema ji has continuously worked for Mathura whereas RLD workers have to go Delhi to meet Jayant."

Even before joining BJP, Malini has participated in party campaigns. She served as Rajya Sabha MP from 2003-09 and later joined the party as General Secretary. Hema Malini defeated Jayant Chaudhary in the 2014 general election and got elected as the MP from Mathura.

Jayant Chaudhary is the former Member of Parliament from the Mathura constituency of Uttar Pradesh. He serves as the MP for the period 2009 to 2014.

The state goes to poll on February 10, 2022, and the election will be held in seven phases to elect 403 members to the Uttar Pradesh State Legislative Assembly.
