Mumbai: Abhay Deol took to his Facebook page a few days back to take a dig at celebrities who endorse fairness creams. And this came after a politician made distasteful remarks about the complexion of people hailing from a certain region in the country. And Bollywood fashionista Sonam Kapoor was quick to react to Abhay’s comments.

Though Sonam has deleted those tweets, Bollywoodlife.com had grabbed shots of her tweets to Abhay.

Here’s what Sonam had tweeted: “@AbhayDeol I appreciate and concur with your views and would like to know your thoughts on this as well!”.

In this tweet, Sonam was referring to a fairness cream endorsed by Abhay’s cousin – Esha Deol.

Abhay, who is known for being extremely blatant, admitted that Esha was wrong too!

Here’s how Abhay reacted:

Is wrong too. For my views read my post. https://t.co/Jw9CNINd6t — abhay deol (@AbhayDeol) 12 April 2017

Sonam also tweeted, “Thank you Abhay, I shot this campaign ten years ago and didn’t understand the ramifications. Thank you for bringing this to the forefront. Abhay calmly responded to her tweet by saying this –

More power to you @sonamakapoor maybe you can use your power as well to take this further than the forefront. https://t.co/FVJcj2Wp7T — abhay deol (@AbhayDeol) 12 April 2017

Though it is difficult to comprehend what campaign Sonam was referring to, but going by the deleted tweet, it seems Abhay may have pointed out a similar product Sonam may have endorsed.

Nonetheless, Sonam’s tweets are not available so we can’t really guess the context.

For the uninitiated, Sonam and Abhay have had huge differences between them ever since they shot for ‘Aisha’ together.
