Trouble over tweets

Shirish has now taken to Twitter to apologise for his actions.

Filmmaker Shirish Kunder landed in trouble for his tweets where he allegedly made derogatory remarks about Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, Aditya Nath Yogi. Sirish had written on Twitter, “Hoping a goon will stop rioting once he’s allowed to rule is like expecting a rapist to stop raping once he's allowed to rape (sic).”

In another tweet, he wrote, “Going by the logic of making a goon as CM so that he behaves, Dawood can be CBI director. And Mallya — RBI Governor (sic).”

An FIR had been registered against the director for his derogatory remarks based on a complaint filed by Thakurdwara Trust of Ayodhya secretary, Amit Kumar Tiwari. Shirish has now taken to Twitter to apologise for his actions. He tweeted, “I unconditionally apologise. I never meant to hurt anyone’s feelings or sentiment.”
