Sunil Pal on Kunal Kamra using ‘Gaddar’ word for Eknath Shinde in the name of comedy
Mumbai: Comedian Sunil Pal on Kunal Kamra using ‘gaddar’ word for Shinde in the name of comedy. He said, “It is a misfortune that such people are called comedians. The word comedian does not suit them. They always use their language, their dirty thoughts, and their vulgar performances. And more than vulgar performances, they themselves look vulgar. Because of their behavior, ordinary people have to face a lot of pain and suffering in the country and in the world…” #SunilPal #KunalKamra #EknathShinde #KunalKamraControversy #Gaddar #Trending #BollywoodNews #BollywoodGossips #BollywoodUpdates #BollywoodNews #Bollywood #Bollywoodcelebrity #BollywoodHindiNews #ians
