Karan Johar took his Twitter handle and wrote, “We urge the Delhi Government to allow cinemas to operate. Cinemas are equipped with better ability to ensure a hygienic environment while maintaining social distancing norms as compared to other out-of-home settings. @LtGovDelhi @ArvindKejriwal @OfficeOfDyCM #cinemasaresafe”
Well, Karan’s this request has dropped him into trouble. Netizens bashed the filmmaker for making such a request amidst a Covid surge. One user wrote, ” Is he out of his mind?
Someone please tell him he’s talking about humans. It’s not just about cinemas being equipped. It’s about those humans who will build a crowd, starting right from their houses to the cinemas, and beyond!Ah! Wish privileged people go a little broader.”

Life>>>> Cinema.”
Is he out of his mind?
Someone please tell him he's talking about humans. It's not just about cinemas being equipped. It's about those humans who will build a crowd, starting right from their houses to the cinemas, and beyond!
Ah! Wish privileged people go a little broader. https://t.co/W8cOIDmUxS

Natak.
People are dying bcoz of covid and you are worried cinemas being affected.
You have earned soo much in years that these pandemics won't matter much to you.
I'm sure you can even help out those who work behind th scenes.
