Shekhar Suman’s cryptic tweet backfires, actor clarifies it wasn’t about Kangana Ranaut

Mumbai: Soon after Kangana Ranaut’s ‘Rangoon’ proved to be a dud at the Box Office, veteran actor Shekhar Suman posted a cryptic tweet which read: "One cocained actress was carrying the burden of her non existent stardom.She has fallen flat on her face n how.Guess this is poetic justice. (sic). "

He did something similar recently. After Ranaut’s ‘Simran’ failed to live up to the hype, Suman posted another cryptic tweet. But his tweet backfired and Twitterarti was in no mood to spare him. On realising that his tweet had drawn negative responses, he clarified by saying it wasn't meant for 'any actor or person'.

Here’s what he wrote and the reactions to his post:

“Itna hungama ..itna shor sharaba..nateeja?khoda pahad ..nikli chuhiya! (sic).”

Soon after realising his tweet was misinterpreted or taken out of context, he tweeted: “This is to clarify that my tweet was not directed at any actor or person..it was about a TV show.plz don't jump to conclusions. (sic).” “

Netizens didn’t quite appreciate Suman’s tweet and they trolled him for doing something that is unbecoming of him. Check out some of the reactions:

For the uninitiated, Suman’s son Adyayan had dated Kangana many years ago but their relationship ended on a very bitter note, reports suggest.
