Anupam Kher gives a befitting reply to Naseeruddin Shah for calling him a ‘sycophant’

Recently, in an interview with The Wire, veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah took a dig at Anupam Kher for not speaking on some serious issues of the country. Naseer slammed Anupam Kher and said, “Someone like Anupam Kher has been very vocal. I don’t think he needs to be taken seriously. He’s a clown. Any number of his contemporaries from NFD and FTII can attest to his sycophantic nature. It’s in his blood, he can’t help it.”

Now, Anupam Kher took to his Twitter handle and spoken on Naseeruddin Shah’s comment on him. He shared a video where he was saying, “Naseeruddin Saab, I saw your interview where you called me a clown, a sycophant and I shouldn’t be taken seriously and it is in my blood, etc, etc. Thank you for this. But I don’t take your words seriously. However, I never spoke anything bad about you. But now I want to say that in spite of getting so much success in life, you have spent your life in frustration. If you can criticise Dilip Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan, Rajesh Khanna, Shah Rukh Khan, Virat Kohli, then I am sure that I am in a great company.”

जनाब नसीरुदिन शाह साब के लिए मेरा प्यार भरा पैग़ाम!!! वो मुझसे बड़े है। उम्र में भी और तजुर्बे में भी। मै हमेशा से उनकी कला की इज़्ज़त करता आया हूँ और करता रहूँगा। पर कभी कभी कुछ बातों का दो टूक जवाब देना बहुत ज़रूरी होता। ये है मेरा जवाब। ? pic.twitter.com/M4vb8RjGjj
