After his now viral encounter with Arnab Goswami on the plane, Kunal Kamra has issued a public statement, throwing light on what exactly happened during the flight.
Kunal noted that when initially approached, Arnab pretended to be on a call and so he waited a bit for him to get free. Later, he gave a him a ‘monologue on journalism’, to which Arnab allegedly responded by calling Kunal ‘mentally unstable’.
Kunal also gave some details about how his passionate ‘rant’ – which became a topic of national interest within minutes – came about. You can read the same, below.
In the end, he requested people not to make the entire thing about him or his bravery, and urged them to focus on who he did this for – Rohith Vemula. Kunal also made it clear that he is apologetic to everyone who was present in the plane – excluding that ‘one’ person.
The video, uploaded by Kunal earlier during the day, is already doing rounds on the internet – and people have a lot to say about it.
To all you ‘Nationalists’,

A member of the Anti-national club approached Arnab for a dialogue, he could educate me better on national interests & how I should keep nation first… instead of that he chose to watch some shitty movie & not engage.
Arnab your mask is off…
Kunal and Arnab couldn’t be more different from each other and the news of them meeting, was bound to cause ripples. However, no one would have thought this is how things would turn out.
You can watch the video, here, in case you missed it earlier.
I did this for my hero…
