Actor Kartik Aaryan exiting Karan Johar’s Dostana 2, remained in the headlines for quite a few days. This sudden news was followed by several speculations about the actor’s unreasonable behaviour and demands. Now favouring the actor is filmmaker Anubhav Sinha and backing his opinion is filmmaker Apurva Asrani. The Thappad director feels such things happen very often, but this is a campaign against the Pyaar Ka Punchnama actor which is unfair. Also, he respects his silence over it.
Anubhav Sinha tweeted, “And by the way... when Producers drop Actors or vice versa they don't talk about it. It happens all the time. This campaign against Kartik Aaryan seems concerted to me and very bloody unfair. I respect his quiet.” Supporting Anubhav Sinha, Apurva shared in his Tweet that he respected him for speaking up against this campaign planned against the actor. Meanwhile, he also recalled the time when he was blacklisted by a few journalists when he penned how the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput was bullied.
Now he feels people speaking up against such a campaign is hinting at a change in the upcoming days. Apurva Asrani’s Tweet read, “I respect Anubhav Sinha for calling out the very obvious campaign against #KartikAaryan. A year ago I had blogged about the bullying Sushant Singh Rajput went through. And though I remain blacklisted for it by many journalists, I feel like something IS changing for the better.”
