On Wednesday (September 4), Shabana Azmi posted a picture of her husband Javed Akhtar with lyricist Gulzar. The picture was taken on a flight; apparently they were traveling together. Both twinned in white and were all smiles as they posed for the camera.
Sharing the picture, Shabana Azmi asked for captions on Twitter. Her tweet read as: “You give the captions”. It was enough for the trolls to poke their nose. While some are calling Javed Akhtar ‘Pakistani’, some are calling him ‘traitor’.
Have a look at the tweet here before looking at the trolls.
