Kabir Singh director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has hit back at actor Adil Hussain following the latter's public criticism of the movie. Vanga took to social media to slam Hussain after he expressed regret over acting the blockbuster movie.
Adil Hussain, who played the Dean of the college in Kabir Singh stated in a YouTube podcast that he wasn't aware of the film's content when he agreed to the role. He called the movie "misogynistic" and said it "legitimizes violence against anybody."
Responding to Hussain's comments, Vanga wrote on 'X' (formerly Twitter), "Ur 'belief' in 30 art films didn't get as much fame to u as ur 'regret' of 1 BLOCKBUSTER film did." He went on to say that he regretted casting Hussain, accusing the actor of being more driven by "greed" than "passion."
Vanga further threatened to replace Hussain's face in the film using AI technology, telling the actor to "smile properly" now.
Here's the tweet:
