BURNING QUESTION: POPULAR STAND-UP COMEDIAN BANNED FROM FLYING; "THE NATION WANTS TO KNOW" WHY!
Home > Tamil Movies > Tamil Cinema NewsKunal Kamra is a popular stand-up comedian who has made his presence on YouTube and has a good number of fan following. He grabbed the spot-light yesterday through a video he posted on his official Twitter handle, with the famous journalist Arnab Goswami.
For the unversed, Kunal had uploaded a video of him asking Arnab to answers his questions, while the latter had ignored him, inside the Mumbai to Lucknow Indigo flight in which they both were travelling co-incidentally. The video stimulated debates among the netizens whether what Kunal has done is right or wrong. Here's the video:

After this video turned viral, the airlines Indigo had announced that Kunal has been banned from using the airline for the next 6 months, as he had invaded the private space of a passenger and deemed the act 'Unacceptable'. Post which, Air India had announced that Kunal is suspended from flying in their airline until further notice.
