New Delhi: Filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri, who got massive critical appreciation and fan love from his last directorial venture - The Kashmir Files - is an avid social media user. He never minces words, well, which often court controversies. Now, in his latest Tweets, he took an indirect dig at actor Ranveer Singh. 

Without taking anybody's name, he wrote: "I was shocked to know how the Bollywood awards mafia works. For example, this year one colourful star managed to get all 10+ awards despite both of his films being disasters and rejected by audience. This shows how corrupt and ‘for sale’ is the awards mafia. But Bollywood is silent.” He also replied to his own tweet asking everyone, “Please comment and share your views on Bollywood’s corrupt awards mafia."
