But the lady also broke down and here’s why.
Hina Khan recently found herself in the eye of a huge controversy when a reknowned film magazine’s editor passed an uncalled for comment on the actress’ Cannes appearance. Hina Khan’s first international red carpet experience turned sour when this said journalist posted a picture of the actress on his Instagram story and wrote – ‘Cannes has suddenly become Chandivali studios kya?’ Karanvir Bohra and Arjun Bijlani Slam a Journalist After He Posts Harsh Comment on Hina Khan’s Cannes 2019 Look
This did not go down with many people. Hina Khan fans or not, one and all lashed out at the journalist and so did the entire television fraternity. Actors namely Arjun Bijlani, Karanvir Bohra, Kangana Ranaut’s sister Rangoli, Farah Khan and Salman Khan among others, berated the journalist. In fact, Ishqbaaaz’s Nakuul Mehta also wrote him an open letter. Ishqbaaaz Star Nakuul Mehta Thanks Journalist Jitesh Pillai for Shaking the Collective Conscience of the Entertainment World
