"Yesterday, I filed police complaint at Khar Police Station against Bollywood's renowned ‘Ek Thi Kabootar' Ekta Kapoor. I have been getting so many phone calls from yesterday as if Ekta Kapoor runs their houshold and sends them ration. Bade bade log call kar rahe hain (big people are calling me). They want me to sit and talk with them. But I don't want to sit and talk with anybody. I want her to apologise to the Indian Army because she and her mother have insulted the Indian Army," Hindustani Bhau says in Hindi.
He further states that nobody can buy him with money and people making such requests should feel ashamed.
Hindustani Bhau had filed a police complaint against Ekta and Shobha Kapoor at Mumbai's Khar Police Station over an objectionable scene in the Alt Balaji web series "XXX", which they have produced.
