Mumbai: A statement allegedly made by
Evan Spiegel, CEO of popular app
Snapchat, in 2015 has sparked a
controversy and threatened to derail
the status of the app in the country.
A former employee of the compnay,
Anthony Pompliano, in a lawsuit has
claimed that Spiegel had said, "This app
is only for rich people," and "I don't
want to expand into poor countries
like India and Spain."
The 'comment' has obviously not gone
down well with social media users and
has sparked on debate on Twitter with
numerous memes springing up and
some of them urging people to
uninstall the app as a mark of protest.
While the call to uninstall the app has
started and some have already got rid
of the app, several other reports have
questioned the authenticity of the
comment as it was not on record.
According to reports, Spiegel and the
company have also denied making the
comment.
Numerous of our Bollywood stars are
also users of the app, posting
interesting photos and videos using
the filters on it.
At the IIFA Award voting weekend
event held in Mumbai on Sunday, the
celebrities were asked about the
controversy. While Sushant Singh
Rajput said he doesn't use the app, Kriti
Sanon and Chunky Pandey were
clueless about the controversy, Vicky
Kaushal said that it was up to the
individual if they wanted to uninstall
the app or not.
However, Alia Bhatt, who is one of the
most prominent users of the app, took
a stand and said, "I don't think he has
said anything like that."
Our Bollywood stars often get
misquoted during some of their
interviews and become part of several
false stories, so perhaps they can
understand Evan Spiegel's situation
well.

Thank God she knew he didn't say that and it was his ex-employee who said so that too allegedly way back in 2015.

People rather than helping the country are busy tweeting from their iPhones sitting in their AC rooms.

Priorities need to be sorted first.

P.S.Proud of her.

Good for her she knew exactly what happened
The CEO didn't say it. It's just the word of an ex-employee who is sueing the company for other stuff

Yes thank goodness Aloo the gyani has secret intel which absolves the CEO. 🤔. Which part of lawsuit did she not get. It's a question of he said vs he said. Then again this is Aloo not the sharpest tool in the shed. Not having enough facts makes one look ridiculous and she looks ridiculous now.

And how do you suggest people help the country ? Go to the slums ? Perhaps Aloo could do something about that first. Seriously 🤔

Yeah Thank Heavens Omniscient ALia Queen of the universe knows everything that's ever happened. What would we ever do without her. Actually I don't know how I lived my life before she came into movies.
Now just wait for her and King HRH Mahesh Bhatt to be acknowledged as saviours of the New World Order.
