Everyone has their point of view. Also, it's a democratic country, and everyone is allowed to speak in it.
If you are a positive person, anything negative does bother you. However, we have been at a place where stones are thrown, so it doesn't bother me anymore." Arshad on public comments Following the controversy, a section of the people saw that the actor disabled his comment section on social media.
Reacting to it, Arshad said that he doesn't know how to do that. He also responded when asked if the incident made him cautious about making comments in public. Arshad said, "Absolutely, I have decided that I will love every film that I watch.
I will love every actor for the rest of my life (laughs)." What Arshad had said about Prabhas In August this year, while speaking with Samdish Bhatia on his podcast , Arshad was asked to name the last bad film he watched. He had said it was Kalki 2898 AD.
Arshad then said, “ Prabhas , I am really sad, why was he...
he was like a joker. Why? I want to see a Mad Max. I want to see Mel Gibson over there.
Tumne usko kya bana dia yaar. Kyu karte ho aisa mujhe nahi samajh mein aata (What have you made of it? Why do they do such things, I never understand).” Celebs criticised Arshad After his comment, many celebrities in the Telugu film fraternity, including actors Nani, Sudheer Babu and director Ajay Bhupathi slammed him by saying that the latter could have chosen his words better.
