New Delhi: Comedian Kunal Kamra issued an apology to his fans on Wednesday after the police sent notice to the attendees of his controversial show, which has sparked considerable political outrage. A banker who attended Kamra’s comedy show in Mumbai was called as a witness after a case was filed against the comedian for his alleged remarks about Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.
Kamra is presently facing many FIRs for his remarks calling Shinde a ‘traitor’ or ‘gaddar’ during his latest stand-up show, “Naya Bharat.”
Taking to Twitter, Kamra wrote, “I am deeply sorry for the inconvenience that attending my show has caused you. He further added humorously, “Please email me so that I can schedule your next vacation anywhere you’d like in India.”

As per the latest information, police have denied reports related to members of the audience who attended the show had been called as witnesses to record their statements. The 36-year-old comedian, known for his anti-establishment views, has refused to apologise for his video, which has about 12 million views on YouTube. Mumbai Police has issued a third summons to the comedian ordering him to appear on April 5 in the case.
The summons was issued on Tuesday, and Kamra was asked to appear at Khar police station, where a first information report (FIR) was registered against him the previous month. The police had summoned him twice earlier but failed to join the inquiry.
