Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap recently came out in support of Karan Johar for ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’, after the movie stuck in controversy because it features Pakistani actor Fawad Khan. Thus taking to his Twitter account, Anurag expressed his support towards Karan.
Kashyap later questioned PM Narendra Modi’s for his impromptu visit to Pakistan to ask after the health of their prime minister, Nawaz Sharif and asked the PM to say sorry to the citizens of the country. In a series of tweets, he raised a finger on Narendra Modi.
@narendramodi Sir you haven’t yet said sorry for your trip to meet the Pakistani PM.. It was dec 25th. Same time KJo was shooting ADHM? Why?

The director was apparently angry over the comments on Cinema Owners Exhibitors Association of India (COEAI)’s announcement stating they would not screen any movies involving Pakistani artistes in the four states of Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, and Goa.
