Comedian Kunal Kamra has approached the Bombay High Court to seek the quashing of the FIR filed against him over his alleged “traitor” remark aimed at Maharashtra Minister Eknath Shinde. Kamra’s move comes after a complaint was filed against him for his comment on Shinde during a stand-up show. The controversial statement led to a police complaint and subsequent FIR being registered against Kamra. The comedian, known for his satirical takes on political figures and current affairs, has been embroiled in several controversies in the past. Kamra’s legal team has argued that his remarks were made in the context of satire and should be seen as an exercise of free speech. The case has sparked a debate on freedom of expression and the boundaries of comedy in India. Kamra’s plea to the High Court seeks to have the FIR quashed, citing that the comment was not made with any malicious intent. The court is yet to hear the case and will decide on the merit of Kamra’s argument. The incident has once again highlighted the delicate balance between artistic freedom and legal consequences in the country’s entertainment industry. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
