Jitesh Pillai Gets Bashed For His Comment on Hina Khan; Industry Expresses Support

Television is going places and actress Hina Khan seems to be at the forefront as she walked the red carpet yesterday at the Cannes Film Festival.  Hina becomes one of the few faces to have been present at Cannes besides Avika Gor and Manish Raisinghan in the past as well as Krushna Abhishek and wife Kashmira Shah this year.  Everyone's eyes have been set on Hina's walk as she happens to be one of the most stylish actresses on Indian Television.  

Buzz has been quite in favor of Hina as critics have loved Hina's red carpet look and of course fans have been praising her as well.  However what came as a surprise was the comment of Jitesh Pillai, the editor of a leading Bollywood magazine.  Jitesh put up a picture of Hina on his Instagram story saying, "Cannes has suddenly become Chandivali Studios Kya?."
