"Those Who Work Make Mistakes": Anupam Kher On "Image-Building" Remark

On Wednesday Mr Kher, who has often praised the Prime Minister and is a strong defender of the BJP, told NDTV the government "had slipped" in managing the crisis

Actor Anupam Kher tweeted a six-line poem in Hindi on Friday morning - an apparent attempt at damage control after comments to NDTV earlier this week seemed to criticise the Narendra Modi government's handling of the Covid pandemic. गलती उन्हीं से होती हैजो काम करते हैं,निकम्मों की ज़िंदगी तोदूसरों की बुराई खोजने में हीख़त्म हो जाती है..:) "Only those who work make mistakes. Those who spend time idly looking for the evil in others... their lives soon come to an end," he tweeted. On Wednesday Mr Kher, who has often praised the Prime Minister and is a strong defender of the BJP-led regime, told NDTV he believed the government "had slipped" in managing the Covid crisis.
