Stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra finds himself embroiled in a legal battle after making a controversial 'traitor' remark about Maharashtra's Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. Cases filed against Kamra in various parts of Maharashtra have now been transferred to the Khar police station in Mumbai.

The studio where Kamra recorded the contentious video is located in Khar, and it became a target of vandalism by Shiv Sainiks on March 23. The police in Nashik Rural, Jalgaon, and Nandgaon initially registered cases against Kamra, which have since been consolidated at Khar.

Despite the legal challenges, the Madras High Court granted Kamra interim anticipatory bail. Kamra, who has moved to Tamil Nadu, expressed fears of arrest by Mumbai police. His legal troubles continue as investigations proceed collectively at the Khar police station.
