Anupam Kher vs Hansal Mehta: Let’s See Who Won The Open Twitter War! Anupam Kher and Hansal Mehta recently had a disagreement on Twitter concerning the film “The Accidental Prime Minister.” The conflict arose when Mehta supported a journalist’s critical view of the film. In response, Kher, who played a key role in the film, accused Mehta of hypocrisy due to his involvement as the creative director. Their exchange highlighted their contrasting opinions on the film’s portrayal of former PM Manmohan Singh. Let’s see what happened in detail.
It all started when journalist Vir Sanghvi posted a tweet saying “If you want to remember the lies that were told about Manmohan Singh you should rewatch The Accidental Prime Minister. It is not only one of the worst Hindi movies ever made but is an example of how media was used to tarnish the name of a good man.” Responding to the tweet, the most acclaimed director Hansal Mehta responded. Director Hansal Mehta reposted the journalist’s tweet and wrote “+100” This started the war on Twitter when Anupam Kher reacted to these tweets.
Responding to that actor Anupam Kher wrote “The HYPOCRITE in this thread is NOT @virsanghvi. He has the freedom to not like a film. But
@mehtahansal was the #CreativeDirector of #TheAccidentalPrimeMinister. Who was present at the entire shoot of the film in England! Giving his creative input and must have taken the fee also for it. So for him to say 100% to #VirSanghvi’s comment is so messed up and full of double standards! Not that I agree with Mr. Sanghvi but we are all capable of doing bad or indifferent work. But we should OWN it. Not like #HansalMehta trying to earn some brownies from a certain section of people. Common Hansal!! Grow up! I still have all our videos and pics of the shoot together!”
The Director Hansal Mehta immediately responded to Anupam Kher’s tweet and wrote “And by the way @anupampkher sir… you can say all you want. Call me names if you wish. Apologies if I’ve inadvertently hurt you. Sending love to you. Whenever you wish we will speak and clear the air. I will not give space to trolls to distort this further and have a field day at our expense. Good night, belated X’mas greetings and a happy new year in advance. To you and to all the hyperactive trolls.”
Of course I own my mistakes Mr Kher. And I can admit that I made a mistake. Can’t I sir? I did my job as professionally as I was allowed to. Can you deny that? But it doesn’t mean I have to keep defending the film or that it makes me lose objectivity about my error of judgement.… https://t.co/UIgc4Pdvww
