Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor has a knack for creating Twitter controversies, and he is back again with a tweet he customarily deleted later. Tweeting a picture of actor Ranveer Singh and filmmaker Karan Johar from the infamous AIB Roast held couple of years ago, Kapoor made a jibe at Ranveer's 'Padmavat', and Johar's sexual preferences. “Ranveer Singh has announced that if Karni Sena tries to stop the release of Padmavat, he would do Johar.”
The tweet did not go down well with the public and responses began to pouring down on him. Many users called his tweet useless, others asked if he was drunk, and many were outright angry. This isn't the first time Kapoor has been told off for his tasteless tweet. Twitter has often found his “jokes” as lacking of humour and bordering insult. The 65 year old has been in recent months, accused of sexism and sending abusive messages to female Twitter users.
His attention-seeking stunts took him so far as to exit the micro-blogging website, only to return half a day later.
