Filmmaker Kiran Rao came out in support of actor Imran Khan after he was directed to leave India by the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) in Mumbai. The Mumbai Police and FRRO issued a notice to the actor directing him to leave the country by October 28. The actor, who reportedly holds a US passport and an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card, was issued the notice after his participation in a CJP-led protest in Mumbai against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.
