Bollywood actor Sonu Sood is facing widespread condemnation for his extraordinary support for notorious YouTuber Manish Kashyap, who’s facing charges of sedition by the Tamil Nadu Police. Eagled-eyed Twitterati have dug out his old tweet to highlight his alleged hypocrisy in his desperation to support a Hindutva hatemonger. One user reminded how Sonu was so scared that he did not even muster the courage to openly support Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan when he was released from a Mumbai jail. The actor, known for his charity work during the pandemic, has suddenly become a villain for indirectly implying that hating Muslims was akin to being a patriot.

Taking to Twitter, Sonu wrote, “As much as I know Manish Kashyap, he has always raised his voice for the welfare of the people of Bihar. Maybe he made some mistakes. But I can say with confidence that he fought only for the interest of the country. Nothing in our country is above justice and law. Whatever happens, will be right.”



Sonu’s support for a known hatemonger evoked angry reactions from netizens with some even accusing him of receiving money to post a tweet in favour of Kashyap. Others pointed out Sonu’s hypocrisy by reminding that the actor had posted a cryptic tweet without taking Aryan Khan’s name when the latter was released from a Mumbai jail after being arrested in a fake drug racket case.

However, many Twitter users added, Sonu wasted no time in throwing his weight behind a YouTube, who is known for his Islamophobia and hatred for Bollywood’s Muslim actors namely Shah Rukh, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan among others.









Kashyap was arrested by the Bihar Police for allegedly posting fake videos on the migrant Bihar workers in Tamil Nadu. He was later taken to Tamil Nadu, where he was booked under the draconian NSA.
