In May, stand-up comedian Daniel Fernandes released a stand-up act titled 'The Kashmir Terror Attack'. The 23-minute set featured Fernandes sharing his observations on the Pahalgam terror incident and the events that followed — from news channels peddling fake narratives to citizens demanding war and the prevailing social media discourse. Fernandes presented his views on the situation in the form of thoughtful satire. However, he has now received a legal notice from lawyers associated with the Supreme Court.
On Wednesday, Daniel took to his social media platforms to share the update, posting screenshots of the legal notice. The notice pointed out specific jokes in his set that the lawyers found objectionable. It also requested that he take down the video from his YouTube channel by June 3. The lawyers objected to both his stand-up video and an X (formerly Twitter) post dated April 14, 2025, stating, “These mock cultural values and trivialize the Pahalgam terror attack, causing widespread hurt.”
