Mumbai Police reach Kunal Kamra’s residence over controversial joke on Eknath Shinde



Meanwhile, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut accused Maharashtra’s cabinet ministers of making serious threats against Kamra.“Ministers in the state cabinet are openly threatening Kamra, demanding that he be ‘shot and hanged immediately.’ This lawlessness continues under the watch of Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who has remained silent on the matter,” Raut said.The controversy erupted after Kamra released a parody version of a song from the 1997 film ‘Dil Toh Pagal Hai’ on March 23, targeting Eknath Shinde. The act sparked backlash, with Shiv Sena workers vandalizing the venue where his show was recorded. Days later, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) began demolishing parts of the Habitat studio where the event was held.Following the incident, Kamra took a defiant stand, refusing to apologize for his remarks.“I will not apologize… I don’t fear this mob, and I will not hide under my bed, waiting for this to die down,” he wrote in a statement.On Friday, the Madras High Court granted Kamra interim anticipatory bail in connection with the FIRs filed against him.“The bail is granted with conditions and will remain in effect until April 7,” Justice Sunder Mohan ruled.Kamra had sought transit anticipatory bail, citing multiple threats received after his recent satirical comments. The case remains under investigation as Mumbai Police continue their legal proceedings.
