Mumbai/Lucknow, Mar 25 (IBNS): Film producer Shirish Kunder, on Saturday, apologised for allegedly making derogatory remarks against Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, according to media reports

On Friday, the media quoting Uttar Pradesh police sources said that an FIR was lodged on Friday in Lucknow's Hazratganj police station against Bollywood producer Shirish Kunder  for his "objectionable" and "abusive" post on the UP chief minister.

The complainant Amit Kumar Tiwari, according to media reports, said that Kunder's tweet compared the Uttar Pradesh CM with the likes of international terrorist Dawood Ibrahim and therefore legal must be taken against Kunder.

Kunder later removed his comment and apologised on the microblogging site. He tweeted, "I unconditionally apologise. I never meant to hurt anyones feelings or sentiment."
