The 43-year-old filmmaker’s tweet came after Censor Board had purportedly raised certain objections regarding references to Punjab following which the movie may have to go through some changes.
“Udta Punjab”, starring Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt and Diljit Dosanjh in a pivotal role, deals with the substance abuse in Northen part of the state and its effects on the youth.
“There is no film more honest than UDTA PUNJAB… And any person or party opposing it is actually GUILTY of promoting drugs,” Kashyap added.
