BookMyShow Dropped Kunal Kamra From Artist List, Claims Sena. Comic Reacts

Shiv Sena functionary Rahool Kanal on Saturday claimed BookMyShow has taken stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra off the sale and artists list from its platforms.

Mr Kanal, the social media in-charge of Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena, thanked BookMyShow CEO Ashish Hemrajani for keeping its portal "clean and keeping such artists out of the list of pure entertainment".

When contacted, BookMyShow team said they have no comments to offer as of now.

Reacting to these reports, Mr Kamra asked BookMyShow to confirm if he can still list his shows on their platform. "If not, it's fine. I understand," he wrote on X.

Rahool Kanal's Letter To BookMyShow CEO 

"I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for your continued support of your team to take the said artist out of your sale and promotion listing, thank you for even taking him out of the BookMyShow search history. Your belief in maintaining peace and at the same time respecting our emotions has been instrumental," Mr Kanal stated in a letter to Mr Hemrajani.

He said Mumbaikars love and believe in every form of art but not personal agendas.

"Your personal touch and guidance by your team were invaluable in navigating and reaching a solution.

"We deeply value your commitment to BookMyShow's values that align with the support, and customer experience, your vision and leadership are truly inspiring, thank you for giving us your team and getting this cleared at the earliest. Thank you," Mr Kanal said.

Mr Kanal was booked along with Shiv Sainiks for allegedly vandalising the studio where Mr Kamra had performed and alluded to Mr Shinde while making a traitor jibe, which snowballed into a major row.

Mumbai Police has issued three notices to Mr Kamra, believed to be in Puducherry, seeking his personal appearance, but he has skipped all of them.
