After the India’s Got Latent controversy, another comedian Kunal Kamra found himself in a legal controversy over an alleged joke on Maharashtra’s Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.

During a recent interaction with the media, the MLA has given a strong statement and has vowed that the party will confront Kunal Kamra once he is back in Mumbai.

The Shiv Sena MLA Murji Patel commented on the ongoing Eknath Shinde Joke controversy which involves comedian Kunal Kamra. He said that the comedian had not presented himself before the Mumbai police and also got anticipatory bail from the Madras High Court. Murji Patel also accused the comedian of running away from the state but gave out a warning that the Shiv Sena would confront him once Kunal Kamra was back in the city, Mumbai.
Reportedly, Kunal Kamra has still not appeared before the police despite the three summons. He has asked to be interrogated over a video call, as per The Hindu report. He had also moved to the Bombay High Court with a request to quash the FIR filed against him in the Eknath Shinde Joke controversy. The hearing on this plea is yet to take place.
