    Arnab Goswami Calls Arjun Kapoor 'A Small TIme Actor', Hansal Mehta, Pooja Bhatt Fume: Enough Of Demeaning Our Profession

    Bollywood has become a potboiler of controversies with something new taking social media by storm everyday. Actor Arjun Kapoor has now been called a ‘small time actor’ by journalist Arnab Goswami during a news debate and he became a trending topic on social media. Filmmaker Hansal Mehta has now slammed Arnab and his channel saying no one is a small time actor.

    In an angry tweet, Hansal wrote, “Nobody is a "small-time" actor. Get that straight F***head Arnab enough of this demeaning and abuse of our profession.”

    Arjun Kapoor’s name cropped up in the news during a discussion about Kangana Ranaut’s office demolition where Arnab while reading out Arjun name from a document said “There is one person called Arjun Kapoor ... I don't know they say he is a small time actor, I don't know who he is …”

    Filmmaker and actress Pooja Bhatt also seconded Hansal’s opinion and in a series of tweets addressed the ‘small time actor’ issue saying, “People use terms like the above & ‘out of work’ actor, ‘B’ or ‘C’ grade actor as a means to dismiss & degrade. The joy & trial of being an actor/artist is that at some point you are going to be out of work.”

    Actress Kangana Ranaut had some while ago on Arnab’s channel called Taapsee Pannu and Swara Bhasker B grade actresses while speaking of the ‘movie mafia’ Karan Johar and stirred up a big controversy.

    Pooja in another tweet wrote that the risky nature of the job is what makes artists courageous. “That’s what makes ALL artistes across board such courageous people. To constantly embrace uncertainty,to plod on & put your best face forward even after enduring failure. To follow your heart & hone your art no matter how average or brilliant people think you are-that takes guts!”

    The world of Twitter is buzzing over Arjun being called a small time actor, the platform is flooding with memes while Bollywood fumes over Arnab’s comments.
