Actor Kubbra Sait and filmmaker Abhinay Deo are the latest to weigh in. While Kubbra took a sarcastic dig at the situation, Abhinay urged people to leave Imran alone and refrain from commenting on his situation.Filmmaker Abhinay Deo, who collaborated with Imran in the 2011 film Delhi Belly, recently spoke to ANI about the controversy. When asked about the situation, he said, “What I think is irrelevant. What is important is that he is going through it. It is something that was his decision. And the authorities are taking certain actions, and who are we to talk about what he is going through at this point of time? It is only known to him.”He went on to praise the actor, saying, “The only thing that I can tell with confidence is what I feel about him and what kind of person he is, in my opinion. And he is an incredible person. A very nice human being. And a fantastically passionate and sensitive man.”When asked about Imran’s American citizenship, Abhinay said, “What is the need for me to be aware of that? I just know he has done a filmmaking course from the US. A lot of people do that.”The filmmaker also urged people to let the actor be. “My point is, I didn’t have a clue and I didn’t care. Why should I? That doesn’t concern me at all, as it should not be concerning the majority of people who are today freely making comments on that. I think we should let people have their opinions, decisions, and we should respect them for what they are going through.”ALSO READ | Jailer 2 Box Office Collection Day 2 Live Updates: Rajinikanth film witnesses 40 percent drop, earns Rs 209 cr‘Imran Khan has been asked to leave India?’Kubra Sait, meanwhile, offered a more sarcastic take on the controversy.
