Hansal Mehta on Kapil Sharma's abusive rant: It is a sad reflection of his possible state of mind

Comedian Kapil Sharma went on a rant spree on Friday thereby, shocking his Twitter followers with the language of his posts. While he started with defending Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, his posts turned into an ugly account of abuse towards media. Later, Kapil targeted journalist Vicky Lalvani and claimed that he is trying to extort Rs 25 lakh from him. 

Kapil, however, deleted the tweets, claiming his account was hacked but soon took to Twitter to post a new tweet on late Friday night, accepting that it was indeed him. It was also reported that the comedian has called up a journalist (Vickey Lalwani) to abuse and threaten him.

Now National Award winning director Hansal Mehta opened up on Kapil’s tweets and said that it is a ‘sad reflection of his possible state of mind’. The filmmaker took to Twitter to post and wrote, “Kapil Sharma’s language with the journalist was despicable but also a sad reflection of his possible state of mind. The journalist in question is no ethical saint either. He has harassed many people, spun many malicious stories and has created stories with his misleading questions.” 

For the unversed, Kapil filed a police complaint against his ex-managers Neeti, Preeti, and journalist Lalvani for starting false and malicious propaganda to defame him in digital media after he refused to pay him the amount.

The comedy star recently made a comeback to small screen with Family Time With Kapil Sharma but the show has not been able to recreate the success of his previous show.
