Kunal Kamra’s Latest Controversy Over Maharashtra Deputy CM: Stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra, known as much for his controversies as for his comedy, has once again landed in trouble. This time, he targeted Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde in a satirical video that quickly went viral on social media. Allegedly, Kamra referred to Shinde as a “traitor” and accused him of betraying public trust.
In the video, Kamra parodied the song “Ek Ladki Ko Dekha To Aisa Laga” with altered lyrics aimed at Shinde. Another video features him singing “Bholi Si Surat, Aankhon Mein Masti”, modifying the lyrics to mock Shinde. These videos have sparked outrage among Shiv Sena supporters, who retaliated by vandalizing Kamra’s office and the studio where the recording took place.
