Actor Shatrughan Sinha, who is known for his straight forward and to-the-point remarks took a dig at Koffee with Karan, calling it ‘Koffee with Arjun’ and said that shows of this kind leads to controversies. He also said that such shows never existed during their time.
He said, “During our era, there was no Koffee with Arjun. These kinds of planned events are what cause controversies. As far as those who are being talked about at the moment are all members of our own society, but film industry doesn’t belong to one person that anyone can say, ‘Let’s boycott this person’ or ‘remove this person from the industry.’” He added rhetorically, “Who are you to say that? How did you enter the industry and what have you done in life?”
Shatrughan Sinha’s daughter, Sonakshi Sinha was at the receiving end of social media backlash after her comments, post Sushant’s death and had been tagged by the netizens as ‘a product of nepotism.’ Subsequently, Sonakshi quit Twitter/
Earlier, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap told NDTV that while Karan Johar certainly has the power to launch a newcomer successfully, but he can’t kill someone’s career. “A Karan Johar can make somebody’s career…by launching (him/her) in a big film. Because he’s not just a filmmaker, he’s also a businessman. He understands. But he cannot break anyone,” Anurag said.
