"Paise Leke...": Vivek Agnihotri's Shocking Allegation Against Arvind Kejriwal, Shashi Tharoor
Vivek Agnihotri has claimed that certain people praised 'Jawan' after receiving certain amount of money.
Vivek Agnihotri's 'The Vaccine War' is all set to release in theatres on Thursday (September 28), but he still cannot stop talking about Shah Rukh Khan's 'Jawan'. The movie directed by Atlee released on September 7, and it has turned out to be a blockbuster. 'Jawan' has been praised for its subtle political and social message, and the movie has earned praise from politicians hailing from BJP, Congress and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
However, in the latest entertainment news, Vivek Agnihotri, in an interview, has claimed that certain people hailing from "right wing" praised 'Jawan' after possibly receiving certain amount of money.
'The Kashmir Files' director then ended up making a shocking allegation against politicians like Arvind Kejriwal (Delhi CM) and senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor.
"Agar right wing ke log paise leke 'Jawan' film ko promote karte hai to main usko galat nahi manta. Amitabh Bachchan agar wo products promote karte hai, agar Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan ya fir cricketers like Virat Kohli wo products promote karte hai jo wo use bhi nahi karte aur kabhi karenge bhi nahi. To yeh to ek business hai, give and take hai," said Agnihotri.
"Lekin agar constitutional posts wale log, desh ke interest ke khilaf kisi aur chiz ko paise leke promote karte hai, to ye bahut chinta wala vishay hai. Chief Minister of Delhi, constituional post hai, Shashi Tharoor sahab, constitutional post hai, member of Parliament hai," he added.
When the hosts says, "To aap inn logo pe ilzaam laga rahe ho ki inhone paise leke," Vivek Agnihotri, replies, saying: "Ilzaam nahi laga raha hoon, me satya bata raha hoon, kisi kaaran me film me kuch chizen dikha nahi sakta to blur kardia hai India ke print me, but foreign , jo humara international print hai, usme nahi kiya, yaha pe allowed nahi hai."

Talking about Vivek Agnihotri's 'The Vaccine War', the new Hindi film stars Anupam Kher, Nana Patekar, Sapthami Gowda and Pallavi Joshi in the lead roles and the new Hindi movie is being touted as India's "first-ever bio-science film" which is also a true story. The plot of the movie will revolve around the struggle of Indian scientists during the Covid-19 pandemic in the country.
On the other hand, 'Jawan' has already crossed the lifetime total of 'Pathaan' in India, to become the highest-grossing Bollywood film of all-time, across all languages. However, it still needs some more crores to emerge as the highest-grossing Hindi movie of all-time.
