Titled as ‘India wants Sushant truth’, the panellists arrived to debate over the lobbying against Kangana and who are accountable for actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death.

For those unversed, Sushant hailed from Patna – a city in the state of Bihar.
The clip went viral on social media and a section of Twitter was unhappy with Kunika.
One user wrote, “Is Patna people a slang? When someone says Mumbaikar or Delhites these people will stand proud I am born in Bihar and I am proud of it. It just the reflection of their thoughts and sick mind sets Despite of living in these urban jungles they haven't learnt manners and etiquettes.”
“Bihar produces the highest number of civil servants and some of the most brilliant minds of the world. Never forget that,” added another.
