Absolutely no one is shooting: Sonakshi Sinha slams Vivek Agnihotri for tweeting old picture
The filmmaker had tweeted a newspaper picture of Sonakshi outside a studio, asking, “Who shoots in such times?”
Director Vivek Agnihotri, today, tweeted a newspaper picture of Sonakshi Sinha stepping out of a Mumbai studio, asking, “Who shoots in such times?”
Sonakshi, in response, clarified that the picture was from November last year. She also reminded Vivek that as a filmmaker, he should have known better than to accuse her of shooting during the lockdown.
“Being a director and member of many unions and film bodies, one would expect you to be better informed that absolutely no one is shooting since studios are shut and its a national lockdown,” Sonakshi wrote, adding that the picture had been used as a throwback. “It's an old picture, from 5th Nov 2019 to be precise!”
The actor later sought police help for being targeted by fake news. Tagging Mumbai Police and the Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray’s office, Sonakshi tweeted:
Excuse me @MumbaiPolice , @OfficeofUT what is the procedure to stop people from spreading rumors and fake news at a time like this? Asking for a responsible citizen, sitting at home, practicing social distancing and NOT shooting - ME pic.twitter.com/piKLznKjoo
