Kunal, who was visiting his friend in Malad, was informed by him about objectionable posts against some actors being posted by Kamaal R Khan on social media and Youtube channel for the past few days.
In his complaint, Kunal said, “The actor has been making insulting statements against other actors and actresses and deliberately trying to create caste and religious discrimination through his review on Akshay Kumar’s upcoming film ‘Laxmmi Bomb’ on his YouTube channel and Twitter account.”
