Troll Asks Anurag Kashyap To Stop Sleeping With Karan Johar, KJo Loses Cool
Karan had a befitting reply to the troll who intervened as he and Anurag condemned the attack on National Award-winning director, Sanjay Leela Bhansali
The attack on Bhansali and Co. on Padmavati sets in
Jaipur on Friday had Bollywood not only condemning the vandalism but
also demanding strict action against the offenders.
Karan Johar and Anurag Kashyap, in particular, were
extremely vocal about the issue and vociferously lambasted those concerned. The
former has been subjected to political bullying a number of times, the most
recent being his 2016 directorial Ae Dil Hai Mushkil being bullied by the
Maharashtra Navnirman Sena, for having cast Pakistani actor Fawad Khan, in the
wake of the Uri terror attack.
In a series of tweets KJo wrote:
Am appalled at what has happened with Sanjay Bhansali....this is the time for all us as an industry to stand by our people and fraternity!!

Having been through many instances of turmoil during a film shoot or release...i understand Sanjay's emotion at this point...I stand by him.

Thoughts of what has transpired with Sanjay Bhansali today are just not leaving me!! Feeling helpless and angry!! This cannot be our future!
— Karan Johar (@karanjohar) January 27, 2017
And for all those so called protectors of history!!! Have you read the script of the film??? Do you know facts??? So then just SHUT UP!!!!
— Karan Johar (@karanjohar) January 28, 2017
Anurag Kashyap, who directed Karan Johar-produced Bombay Velvet, too echoed similar sentiments and said, “Hindu extremists have stepped out of twitter into the real world now.. and Hindu terrorism is not a myth anymore.”

Soon after this tweet, a regressive troll decided to give
Anurag some free advice. He said, “@anuragkashyap72 hey buddy let me give u
free advice “stop sleeping with @karanjohar (sic).”
Already flustered with the prevailing circumstances, KJo
did not take the comment lying down lashed out at the troll. He said, “Let me
give you some better advice!! Start sleeping with someone!!! You frustrated
F*ck!!!! (sic)”

You go, Karan!
For those who have come in late, on Friday, Karni
Sena activists entered the premises of Jaigarh Fort, Jaipur where Bhansali was
shooting for Padmavati and attacked the crew and damaged property. Reason?
Distortion of historical facts, they say. While his team tried to protect SLB,
a blow landed straight on the cowering, unarmed, filmmaker.
Besides Karan and Anurag, a number of celebs including
Alia Bhatt, Priyanka Chopra, Mahesh Bhatt and Sonam Kapoor among others took to
Twitter to express resentment at the incident.
