Bollywood director
Hansal Mehta
, known for his candid
social media
presence, recently expressed frustration over the delays in his daughter
Kimaya Mehta
’s Aadhaar registration.
Earlier today, Hansal Mehta took to Twitter to criticize
government officials
for allegedly ‘harassing’ his daughter. In his post, he detailed his daughter’s struggles over the past three weeks to obtain an
Aadhaar card
.
The filmmaker wrote, “My daughter has been trying to apply for an Aadhar card for the past 3 weeks. She makes the long trek to the Aadhar office in
Andheri East
, braving rains, going early enough, and the senior manager there keeps sending her back on some pretext or the other.”
Mehta went on to describe the experience as ‘most frustrating and nothing short of
harassment
‘ and tagged the official X accounts of the
Unique Identification Authority of India
and Aadhaar in his post.
As soon as Mehta shared the post, several users reacted with their own comments and experiences. One user wrote, “She needs to comply with the documents! Yaha koi scam nahi hai Mehta ji (no scam works here)!” Hansal replied, “Really? Is getting the government official to put his stamp slightly higher a compliance parameter? Stop this BS.”
On the work front, Hansal Mehta’s upcoming film The Buckingham Murders, starring Kareena Kapoor Khan, is set to release in theaters on September 13 this year. Apart from this, he is also working on a biopic about Mahatma Gandhi. Pratik Gandhi and his wife, Bhamini Oza, are set to portray Gandhi and Kasturba Gandhi.
