Netflix's Scoop director Hansal Mehta reveals his daughter is facing harassment since 3 weeks while applying for Aadhar Card, fans say, 'Instead of cribbing...'

Prominent filmmaker Hansal Mehta, who is known for making projects like Scoop, Scam 1992, Omerta, Shahid, Citylights and others, took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to lash out at government officials for delaying the Aadhar registration of his daughter Kimaya Mehta despite her multiple visits.

He wrote, “My daughter has been trying to apply for an Aadhar card since past 3 weeks. She makes the long trek to the Aadhar office in Andheri East braving rains, going early enough and the senior manager there keeps sending her back on some pretext or the other. Get this signed, get this document, the stamp is not in the correct place, you dont have an appointment today, I am on leave for a week… This is most frustrating and nothing short of harassment” tagging the official X account of Unique Identification Authority of India and Aadhar in the post.

However, the filmmaker garnered mixed reactions from netizens for the post. While one wrote, “Instead of cribbing and crying all the time on twitter….for once why dont you accompany her and get the matter sorted…..its possible something is not in order on either side. As it is you are having a lot of time complaining on twitter,” another user commented, “You only mentioned it that he is asking for documents and signs, …get some lime juice and be sober before coming on social media.”

Another person wrote, “If he approves without having proper documents, then people like you will cry that government, Officer are not working properly….."
