'The Tashkent Files' director even congratulated Eknath Shinde for becoming the new Chief Minister and slammed the former CM Uddhav Thackeray.
" Congratulations @mieknathshinde Congratulations @Dev_Fadnavis for your dynamic leadership. At least, now we can live without fear. #JaiMaharashtra" the director tweeted.
