One of the actors in the movie the veteran Anupam Kher is being appreciated for his role, however, many people on social media are reminding the actor of his tweets done during the congress era and comparing them to his stance after BJP came to power in 2014.
In one of the actor’s tweets dated 03 September, 2011, he wrote, ” problem is NOT with Kashmiri Pandits and Muslims, We have lived together for years peacefully. It’s POLITICIANS my friend :).”
“My heart bleeds of Kashmir. Politics and terrorism has turned heaven into hell for its people… both Hindus and Muslims,” his another tweet dated 29 June 2010 reads.
Senior journalist Umashankar Singh sharing the screenshot of old tweets of Anupam Kher, senior writes, ‘It is not that Anupam Kher has made a single tweet with Hindu Muslim equality 7-8 years ago by mistake. There are many such tweets which tell the secular ideology of his then. Changes in the script then started later. Well a great film could be made on a change in the brain chip!’
Re-tweeting the tweet, senior journalist Ajit Anjum asked, ” It was you, wasn’t it AnupamPKher sir? Are all your own tweets? Changed both your software and hardware after 2014?
At the same time, a user named Neha Singh, while sharing a screenshot of a tweet by Anupam Kher, writes that this tweet seems to be in the context of the present, even the leaders in Parliament are busy promoting the movie to bake their rotis.
