Comedian Samay Raina and the owner of The Habitat Mumbai, Balraj Singh Ghai, on Wednesday visited Lalbaugcha Raja for Ganpati Bappa's darshan. They were accompanied by Rahool Kanal, Yuva General Secretary of Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena. Netizens are shocked to see them together because earlier this year, when The Habitat was attacked and destroyed, Kanal was involved in it.

The Kunal Kamra Controversy
A few months ago, a video of comedian Kunal Kamra went viral, in which he took a dig at a politician without naming anyone. He had called the politician 'gaddar'. This didn't go down well with the members of Shinde's Shiv Sena, and they vandalized The Habitat Mumbai, where Kunal had performed the gig.
The members of the party had asked Kunal to apologize, but he didn't.
