No apology, no empathy when your friend had a breakdown and was in the hospital? Please don't seek mileage from the man's illness now. Let him recover in peace." Asrani and Mehta have been at loggerheads since Asrani wrote a post on social media calling the filmmaker "spineless". He wrote the post as he was unhappy with actress Kangana Ranaut for claiming that she had co-written the script of 2017 film "Simran", directed by Mehta. Asrani said he was not offended by the credits but felt "betrayed" by the actress. Asrani also wished a speedy recovery for Jain. "My prayers are with Kamal Jain," he tweeted.
