And this was Sinha's reply- "Being a Director and member of many unions and film bodies one would expect you to be better informed that Absolutely NO one is shooting since studios are shut and its a national lockdown!" (sic) Have a look right here:

Vivek clarified that it was a dig at the publication and not her. "The dig is at @MumbaiMirror not you. If I have to say something to you, I’d tag you. It’s very insensitive to print such pictures in a trying time like this giving wrong impression. As a star you should also very strongly condemn this kind of yellow and insensitive journalism", he tweeted. Take a look:

Well, it seems the filmmaker was indeed taking a dig at the people who posted the picture and not the actress. And why not? Who would go for shootings in such times?
