Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi's three-day Sadbhavana fast, which began on Saturday, hasn't gone down well with some Bollywood celebrities. Stars tweeted their feelings on the matter.
Hrithik Roshan's sister-in-law Farah Ali Khan tweeted: 'I don't care if it makes me unpopular being anti Modi. I will always call a spade a spade. Not here to win a popularity poll or promote myself. Hitler was a great administrator but his crimes against the jews were atrocious. He paid for it. Someday Modi will. Everything returns here.'
Shekhar Kapur feels Modi is only fasting for Prime Minister candidacy. 'Must say goin on fast is most innovative way of announcing ur candidacy for Prime Ministership, definitely subverts a rath yatra! 2 say tht next PM is btwn N Modi and R Gandhi is outdated analysis of younger, aspirational n more connected India,' he wrote.
Shirish Kunder tweeted: 'Modi is fasting. Advani is slowing. Height of Irony = The man responsible for the worst communal genocide in the country is now fasting for communal harmony. Sad bhavana!'
