Amid
the
growing
uproar
over
Tanmay
Bhat's
controversial
video,
which
belittles
two
Bharat
Ratna
awardees
-
singer
Lata
Mangeshkar
and
legendary
cricketer
Sachin
Tendulkar,
actress
Sonam
Kapoor
has
come
out
in
support
of
Tanmay
Bhatt.
Sonam
feels
that
Bhat's
video
has
been
misinterpreted.
Here's
what
she
posted
on
the
micro-blogging
site,
Twitter.
"Dear
Tanmay
Bhat,
being
your
friend
I
know
what
you
say
and
do
is
never
to
offend,
but
to
make
people
laugh."
"Don't
you
guys
think
there
are
issues
that
are
more
important
than
Tanmay
Bhat's
Snapchat
jokes?
I'm
in
shock
with
this
over
reaction."
"Being
living
legends,
I
know
Sachin
Tendulkar
and
Lata
Mangeshkar
don't
even
know
and
care
about
what's
going
on!
Stop
spewing
hate
on
their
behalf."
The
video,
which
Bhat
posted
on
Snapchat,
liberally
ridiculed
and
'roasted'
Lata
and
Sachin.
It
went
viral
on
the
social
media
and
other
channels
and
triggered
widespread
outrage.
Among
other
things,
in
the
video,
Bhat
has
shown
a
face-swap.
Statements
like
"why
the
86-year-old
Lata
was
still
alive"
and
"who
was
the
better
player
between
the
43-year-old
Sachin
and
Virat
Kohli"
raised
a
howl
of
protests
and
condemnations.
