New Delhi: The micro blogging site Twitter provides celebrities a platform to connect with fans, something which wouldn't be possible in real life. On Twitter, they voice their opinions but sometimes they also land in troubles because of it.
As the year is nearing end, we bring to you 5 incidents when our Bollywood celebrities vented anger on each other on Twitter.
Though this was a one sided argument, the Anupam-Aamir incident definitely makes it to the top in this list. When superstar Aamir Khan made a statement at an award function that the rising intolerance in the country had prompted his wife Kiran Rao to wonder if they should leave the nation; Anupam was the first one to slam him. Although, Aamir in the same breath had added that it was disastrous for Kiran to even think so, but the damage was done by then.
Anupam took to Twitter to ask when did ‘incredible' India become ‘intolerant' India for Aamir. He had also tweeted; “Dear @aamir_khan. Did you ask Kiran which country would she like to move out to? Did you tell her that this country has made you AAMIR KHAN.”
However, a few days later Kher said that Aamir is a dear friend and he would like to work with him.
Anupam Kher – Shirish Kunder:
In the wake of Aamir's intolerance controversy, another celebrity faced the wrath of Anupam Kher. After Anupam's criticism for Aamir, director Shirish Kunder took a jibe at him by tweeting “Dear Anupam Kher, #AamirKhan was talking about Kiran Rao, not Kiran Kher. Hope this clears the confusion. Jai Ho :-).”
A miffed Anupam replied, “Omg. Never realized you are so intelligent. Jai Ho.:)”
Rishi Kapoor – KRK:
This probably was the most entertaining banter on Twitter. Actor Kamaal Rashid Khan who is famous for insulting A-list Bollywood actors on Twitter, took a wrong decision when he tried doing the same with Rishi Kapoor aka Chintu Ji. It all started when Rishi reacted to a tweet of a parody account of KRK. The parody account had replied to a conversation between superstar Shah Rukh Khan and director Karan Johar. The tweet had a picture of KRK in a toilet.
Rishi Kapoor, who wasn't mentioned in the tweet, wrote, “This man is a failure in life. He tweets all garbage as he is a failed,flop actor. Avoid him, he is a fundamentalist.”
KRK, then started abusing Rishi and his son actor Ranbir Kapoor on Twitter. If this wasn't enough, he went on to block many stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan from his Twitter account.
Abhishek Bachchan – Karan Talwar:
You probably might not be aware of Karan Talwar who runs his Twitter handle in the name of Bollywood G***u. Well, no one really knew him till he insulted actor Abhishek Bachchan on Twitter, only to get a befitting reply from him. Karan had tweeted, “Life is not about answers but questions. Where is my career going? Am I making enough money? Why am I still following @juniorbachchan?”
To this, Bachchan replied, “@BollywoodG***u here are the answers: 1. Nowhere 2. For your skill set? Hell yeah! 3. I don't know. I unfollowed you years ago.”
After a long exchange of venomous tweets, the war finally ended. What else, KRK came to Abhishek's rescue and supported him by saying that he is a great actor.
Kushaal Tandon – Ameesha Patel:
Ex bigg boss contestant Kushaal Tandon made it to news this year when he accused Ameesha Patel of disrespecting the National anthem. According to him, Ameesha did not stand up before the screening of a film while the national anthem was being played. He narrated the entire incident on Twitter.
A day later, Ameesha posted a series of tweets clarifying that she didn't stand up because she has ‘monthly girly problem'. She also asked women to slap Kushaal and said he doesn't know how to respect the privacy of women. Kushaal, responded by saying that she didn't have to abuse him on Twitter as it didn't suit her.
