KRK Allegedly Shared a Tweet Demeaning Dhanush and Posted Obscene Images

- Karuna Nidhi

MUMBAI: Bollywood actor and producer Kamaal R Khan (KRK) filed a petition in the Bombay High Court on January 8, seeking to quash a 2017 First Information Report (FIR) registered against him over allegedly derogatory remarks made on social media against Tamil actor Dhanush. His advocate, Sana Raees Khan, will be requesting the court for an early hearing date on Monday.

KRK claimed that he had been falsely implicated in the case, stating that the case was filed by a non-aggrieved party. Citing a seven-year delay in the investigation, without the chargesheet being filed, KRK invoked his right to free speech and urged the court to dismiss the case as an abuse of legal process.

As I watched 120 Bahadur, I just couldn't shake off the sense of familiarity. Our war dramas often march to the same beat, and this one also takes its time before stepping out of that mould. It finds its footing eventually, but only after wading through a swamp of predictability. So how does it fare overall?
