For once, the joke’s on Kapil Sharma. Three months after he took to Twitter to complain about BMC demanding a bribe for his office construction and unwittingly exposed how he was illegally encroaching upon a mangrove forest, a court has directed the Versova police to register an FIR against the comedian. The encroachment came to light after he posted a tweet on September 9, outraged that BMC officials demanded Rs 5 lakh in exchange for clearing his office renovation project.
