Kanika’s film “Judgemental Hai Kya” starring actress Kangana Ranaut opposite Rajkummar Rao had created a buzz in the Indian film industry before its release, courtesy the amount of “sexual content” that the flick has.
Recently, the film was slapped with a “15 certificate” by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), implying that audiences below the age of 15 in the UK would not be allowed to watch the Bollywood movie.
Kamal Rashid Khan is infamous for his blunt take on everything under the sky. He never shies away from adding his two cents to every conversation. Most of his tweets are controversial, and he is often crass in his opinions.
