Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor has come out in support of comedian actor Kiku Sharda, who was arrested for spoofing Dera chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh in one of his television skits.
The actor said he would play Ram Rahim and see who arrests him.
Kapoor, 63, took to Twitter to lend his support to the actor. "I would like to play this rockstar in a film. Let me see who puts me behind bars? Go Kiku Sharda!," he tweeted along with a picture of Dera Chief.
Many Bollywood celebrities like Farah Khan, Kapil Sharma, Huma Qureshi and Vir Das have also expressed their displeasure over the arrest of the comedian. Kiku was released after furnishing a bail bond of Rs one lakh.
