Politician Manjinder Singh Sirsa’s tweet evoked a sharp response, with the celebrities’ fans coming to the support of their favourite stars.
The lawmaker, who is a part of Delhi’s legislative assembly, tweeted a TikTok video from celebrated B-Town director Karan Johar’s party.
The video shows a veritable who’s who of the Indian film industry captioned “#UDTABollywood” by Sirsa, in an apparent reference to a drug addiction problems-based movie ‘Udta Punjab’.
As Sirsa’s tweet started spreading like wildfire on social media, Milind Deora, former Indian minister and Member of Parliament from Mumbai, lashed out at him.
Stating that his wife was herself present at the party, Deora urged Sirsa to “stop spreading lies and defaming people”.
The B-Town fans are well-known to be protective about their favourite celebrities and they didn’t take time to jump in on twitter to defend their stars.
Earlier, Karan Johar posted a video of the party on his Instagram account where the B-Town A-listers could be seen having a great time.
