A twitter war broke out between a Kannada star Kiccha Sudeep and Bollywood Star hero Ajay Devgn on Wednesday. This war is well known to the followers of both the heroes.  However, there is a dramatic turn to this as political leaders also joined the war.

The war started after the Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s declaration. He declared that Hindi should be accepted as an alternative to English on April 8.Later ‘Kiccha’ Sudeep commented “Hindi is no more a national language.” in a press meet on a question regarding ‘KGF being a PAN India film.’

Ajay Devgn tweeted and tagged Sudeep hinting him not to release his movies in Hindi. Ajay closed the statement saying, “Hindi is always an official language.” Sudeep replied that he has respect towards all languages including Hindi so expects the same from all.

It came to an end after a few exchange of tweets. When everyone thought the war has come to a set Director Ram Gopal Varma made an appearance tweeting “Bollywood is jealous over the success of South Indian films.”

Whilst the twitter war broke between 2 top stars of different film industries (Sandalwood & Bollywood) political leader Siddaramaiah entered the scene. He tweeted and tagged Ajay Devgn stating that “I am proud to be a Kannadiga and will never accept Hindi as a national language”.

The Chief Minister of Karnataka, Basavraj S Bommai came to the support of Sudeep. He also asked everyone to respect his statement. We have to wait and see who else is going to join the queue and when will this feud lay down.
