Bollywood actor Anupam Kher on Friday, took a dig at students Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya, who were granted six-month interim bail by a Delhi court in a sedition case.
"Only those can be considered as heroes who talk in favour of the country. How can those who talk against the country be hailed as heroes? Look how they (Khalid and Bhattacharya) are being greeted. They haven't won some Olympic medal... They have been granted bail today (Friday)," Kher said while addressing a gathering of students mostly affiliated with the ABVP.
Kher was in the JNU campus for screening for his film "Buddha stuck in a traffic jam". A handful of students protested against his visit to the campus raising slogans like 'Anupam Kher go back' and 'Modi ke talve chatna band karo'.
Meawhile, an assertive Kher went on to praise Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his short speech. "After a long time, the nation has got a good prime minister. I was stunned by his speech at the Sufi festival," the Bollywood actor said.
