Controversies

In September 2022, Atul took a dig at Bollywood film director Vivek Agnihotri on Twitter and it led to a verbal duel between the two on the microblogging platform. Following the public protest demanding a boycott of ‘Brahmastra Part One: Shiva’, a Hindi movie, it was Atul who first stirred controversy.

The comedian tweeted that if the movie is renamed Brahmastra Files, all the Bhakts will watch it. In response to his tweet, Vivek gave a fitting reply that Atul should consider changing his name to Atul Santri so that he will get employment.

His post was followed by a sarcastic caption requesting all Mumbaikars to wear the seatbelt or else to wear the t-shirt he posted on Twitter.
