Kunal Kamra Faces Legal Trouble Over Remarks on Eknath Shinde 2025

Comedian Kunal Kamra is facing legal action following remarks made about Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde during a recent stand-up performance. The controversy began when Kamra referred to Shinde as a “gaddar” (traitor) and performed a parody song mocking the politician’s 2022 defection from the Shiv Sena party. A video clip of the skit, posted on Kamra’s Instagram profile, triggered backlash from Shinde’s supporters. ​

In response, members of Shinde’s Shiv Sena faction vandalized the Habitat Comedy Club, the venue where Kamra’s performance was recorded. The studio, located within the Unicontinental Hotel in Mumbai’s Khar area, sustained damage as party workers ransacked the premises, shouting slogans and disrupting operations. ​

Subsequently, the Mumbai police registered a First Information Report (FIR) against Kamra, based on a complaint by Shiv Sena MLA Murji Patel. The comedian has been booked under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), including 353(1)(b), 353(2) (statements conducing to public mischief), and 356(2) (defamation). The FIR is expected to be transferred to the Khar police for further investigation Kunal Kamra

In a parallel development, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) initiated demolition work inside the Habitat Comedy Club, citing unauthorized alterations.

This action has raised concerns about potential misuse of administrative powers in response to political controversies. Kunal Kamra

Kamra has not issued an official statement regarding the investigation. However, he shared an image of himself holding a copy of the Indian Constitution on Instagram, captioned “The only way forward,” suggesting a stance on freedom of expression.

This incident has ignited a broader debate on freedom of speech in India, with various political figures weighing in. Opposition NCP-SP MLA Rohit Pawar drew parallels to a 2003 incident involving Chhagan Bhujbal, emphasizing the need for leaders to handle satire with resilience. Conversely, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis criticized Kamra’s performance as “low-quality comedy,” stating that while humor and satire are appreciated, “recklessness will not be tolerated.”Kunal Kamra

As the legal proceedings unfold, the case continues to spotlight the delicate balance between artistic expression and political sensitivities in India’s democratic landscape.
