Above is the original tweet by Rishi Kapoor, where he shared his opinion on the film with his many followers. While Rishi may have disliked the film, many of his fans disagreed, and while some civilly argued their points against Rishi's review, few netizens were angered by Rishi's negative opinion of the film. Some started to compare Rishi's films to that of Martin Scorsese's and left several demeaning comments on Rishi Kapoor's page.
This obviously bothered the actor who took to Twitter again to finally respond to his harsh critics. Rishi told those enraged by his review to not take it personally. He added that it was just his opinion and their hatred was unfair. He also said that he was asked by some fans for his opinion and so he gave it and it was not his intention to offend anyone. Below is the Tweet that Rishi posted in response to all the backlash he got for his review of The Irishman.
Why is my short review of “Irishman”being taken so personally? Some comparing my films with it with hatred! Unfair,it wasn’t intentional. Some fans asked my opinion-I said so! I hated “Once upon a time in Hollywood”too. Have seen better works of all the actors/directors involved!
