Here is his post:

For The Anward, first Babil, now in a removed video, came out in his contemporaries. He later inacted the account and issued a statement saying that the video was “very misinterpreted”, claiming that he was praising him.

After the incident, Rajesh released a statement expressing his disappointment over Babil’s video. In a comment, he interrogated the actor’s team, saying, “Do you really believe that we will go away quietly without addressing it? The attitude we have faced is disappointing. It seems as if only those nominated in Babil’s video are considered worthy of honor, while the rest of us are left like fools.

On the work front, Babil was last seen in ‘Logout’.
