Marathi star Umesh Kamat gets embroiled in Raj Kundra controversy, lashes out at news channels for irresponsibility

Marathi actor Umesh Kamat had to pay a heavy price when his name was misinterpreted as the PA and close associate of Raj Kundra. The similarity in their name and surname proved traumatic for the Marathi actor as he got dragged unnecessarily in the controversy. Due to this major confusion by media officials, his pictures and photos got published as Raj Kundra's associate. The Umesh Kamat in question is the ex-PA and one of the partners of Raj Kundra in his pornography films. 

The goof up caused a lot of misunderstanding among his fans, relatives, and friends. The 42-year-old actor expressed his disgust over an Instagram post and wrote, "Irresponsible journalism. @aajtak @crimetakofficial #Newsnation". He accused news channels Aaj Tak, Crime Tak, and News nation of causing him trauma with their irresponsible journalism.
