Comedian Kunal Kamra has fallen into a new soup for making Shiv Sena chief and deputy chief minister of Maharashtra Eknath Shinde the target of a joke. Party leaders issued threats to him of "grim consequences
Stand-up comedian Kamra's set, which he performed at Mumbai's Khar area Hotel Unicontinental while it was shot, was of a 'gaddar' (traitor) to Shiv Sena's Eknath Shinde. He made a joke out of the deputy CM by replacing lyrics of the song from 'Dil Toh Pagal Hai'. The joke of Kunal Kamra was not appreciated by the Sena leaders, who took umbrage at the joke of the comedian and warned him. Party workers went to the extent of vandalizing Khar hotel where the show was being shot.
Shiv Sena Lok Sabha MP Naresh Mhaske called Kamra a "contract comedian" and issued a warning that he should not have trodden on a snake's tail (in a clear reference to Eknath Shinde)."We will ensure you are unable to move around in the country. If we start tracking you, you will need to exit the country," the Thane MP added.
Mhaske claimed that the stand-up comedian had received money from Uddhav Thackeray to attack Eknath Shinde. "His (Uddhav) party does not have anyone so it is employing such individuals. Kamra will now understand the price of speaking against Shinde," he further said.The Shiv Sena MP also criticized Sena UBT's Raut's act of uploading the video on the web on X.
After the vandalisation of Hotel Unicontinental, Raut posted on X and mentioned, "Kunal Kamra is a celebrated writer and stand-up comedian. Kunal had written a mockery song on the political situation of Maharashtra, which annoyed the Shinde gang and then looted the studio. Devendraji, you are a weak home minister." At the same time, Shiv Sena MLA Murji Patek also threatened Kamra that he would show him "his level" and asked him to apologise on this matter.
