Kunal Kamra found himself in the midst of a fresh controversy over his comments against Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde in March.

(Also read: BookMyShow releases statement after Kunal Kamra asks ticketing platform not to 'delist' him: 'Facts been misrepresented') Swara Bhasker met stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra in Tamil Nadu.
Swara shared a pair of pictures in which she was seen with Kunal. The two of them were seen in a light-hearted mood as they smiled in the pictures. Both of them also twinned in white outfits. 'Tamil Nadu kaise pahuchega bhai (How will you reach Tamil Nadu)?' was written on the picture, a direct reference to how Kunal responded to the threats received in the call.
In the caption, Swara wrote, 'Someone once asked… 'TamilNadu kaisey pahunchega bhai?' (laughing face emoticon) Featuring one and only @kuna_kamra.' The post was geo-tagged at Tamil Nadu.
Several users reacted to the post and the caption with laughing face emoticons. One said, 'You reached swara ji congratulations.' 'Haha what a line! And the way that guy delivered it….. damn funny.' About the call
For the unversed, in a recording of the 53-second audio clip, the caller was heard abusing Kunal Kamra and saying that he would meet the same fate as the studio in Mumbai, where he targeted Mr Shinde. When the comedian said that he was currently in Tamil Nadu, the caller said: "Tamil Nadu kaise pahuchega bhai (How to reach Tamil Nadu now)?" He then said, "Talk to our sir, one minute." The call was then disconnected.
Kunal sang a parody of Bholi Si Surat, a popular song from the Bollywood movie Dil To Pagal Hai at one of his shows. With this parody song, he allegedly targeted Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, leading to multiple FIRs against him. Following the controversy, Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena youth group, Yuva Sena, vandalised The Habitat, the venue where the show was filmed.

He was seen kissing her goodbye at the funeral. Harmeet Singh, her ex-husband, expressed his inability to attend due to being in Europe. Shefali's sudden death has shocked many. Parag Tyagi, heartbroken and overwhelmed, has spoken out for the first time since the untimely demise of his wife, actress Shefali Jariwala. In a deeply emotional moment, the actor requested everyone to pray for his 'pari,' just hours after performing her final rites in Mumbai. Shefali, best remembered for her iconic Kaanta Laga music video, tragically passed away at the age of 41 following a sudden cardiac arrest. After shefali's funeral, a devastated Parag appeared in front of the media and requested privacy with folded hands. He also said, 'Meri pari ke liye pray kijiyega aap sab log, please." Parag was surrounded by police personnel while he urged the media to pray for Shefali's soul to rest in peace. Earlier today, a paparazzi video captured a heartbreaking moment as Parag kissed his late wife Shefali Jariwala one last time before her final farewell. The clip also showed Shefali's devastated mother sitting beside her mortal remains, overcome with emotion. While several celebrities attended the last rites, her ex-husband Harmeet Singh was notably absent from the ceremony. Harmeet Singh later explained his absence from Shefali Jariwala's funeral, revealing that he is currently in Europe and was unable to return in time to attend the last rites. He wrote on Instagram, 'Being away in Europe right now, it's painful for me not to be able to be there for the last rites." Harmeet sent his condolences to Shefali's parents, sister and husband Parag Tyagi. He added, 'Gone far too soon. I pray to the Almighty for her soul to rest in peace, and strength to the family during this unimaginable time." Meanwhile, preliminary reports indicate that she suffered a cardiac arrest late Friday night, between June 27 and 28. She was rushed to Bellevue Multispeciality Hospital in Mumbai by her husband and three others, but was tragically declared dead on arrival. While the official cause is yet to be confirmed, cardiac arrest remains the likely reason. Shefali Jariwala rose to fame in the early 2000s with her iconic appearance in the remix music video Kaanta Laga, earning her the nickname 'Kaanta Laga Girl.' Her bold, glamorous style became symbolic of the remix era, turning her into an overnight sensation.
