Film writer-editor Apurva Asrani has, via a cryptic social media post, taken a dig at Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut for "hijacking a film" and called it the worst form of "hara-kiri". Asrani, who took to Twitter to take a jibe at Kangana on Saturday, had earlier spoken about how the "Queen" actress took over the entire filming and the script of "Simran", which released in 2017.

"A star hijacking a film and running down the hard work of crew member/s is the worst form of hara-kiri there is. When affected filmmakers cannot control this and instead put on a facade of a 'dignified silence', they allow a monstrous ego to go on a rampage and eventually kill the film," he tweeted.
