In an interview to a leading
daily, Naseeruddin Shah blamed the late superstar Rajesh Khanna for bringing in
mediocrity into Bollywood. While no one else said anything initially about it,
the matter went berserk after Khanna's elder daughter Twinkle took to Twitter
to blast the veteran actor.
Twinkle said, "Sir if u
can't respect the living, respect the dead-mediocrity is attacking a man who
can't respond @NaseerudinShah. All due regard to Mr Shah's reality,mine=a man
who loved cinema & did films like Anand, Amar Prem, Kati Patang thank u
folks for all the love."
Lots of Rajesh Khanna fans
went online to second the thought. Twinkle's very good friend Karan Johar also
took to Twitter to side with her. He said, "I agree with you
@mrsfunnybones...due respect to seniority but this was in exceptionally bad
taste and not becoming of a fraternity member.."
However, later on Naseer
apologized.
