Controversial Kapoor scion, Rishi Kapoor, who truly represents the Kal, Aaj aur Kal of Bollywood, has also been identified as the one, who loves his meat, but does not ever mince his words.
On early Sunday morning, Rishi Kapoor, in his excitement and nervousness prior to the upcoming Women’s Cricket Final, tweeted how he was awaiting a repeat of the former Indian Cricket captain Saurav Ganguly’s memorable shirtless celebration at the Lords, London.

However, the twitteratis were prompt to rebut and troll him, since the implied meaning of the tweet translated into a completely derogatory meaning. Some of his fans/followers replied to him on a lighter note, while some became critical of the actor’s message.

Another Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar was forced to apologise after Janta Ka Reporter carried a story on how social media users had slammed him for insulting the national flag.
Kumar, while rooting for the Indian women cricketers at Lord’s on Sunday, had held the Indian tricolour upside down, which is a punishable act under the Indian law.
