As the release of Anubhav Sinha‘s upcoming film Bheed approaches, the director has dismissed the controversy brewing on Twitter regarding the film’s production and its presenter, Bhushan Kumar. According to Sinha, the negative comments are generated by “bots” and not genuine cinema-goers. Bheed focuses on the plight of migrants during the Covid-19-induced lockdown of 2020, and is set to hit theatres on March 24. Despite the rumours that T-Series, Kumar’s company, has distanced itself from the film, Sinha remains focused on the film’s story and message, encouraging audiences to pay attention to the magic of movies rather than the mechanics behind them.
