The politician is actually curious if a Minister of Maharashtra was there at the filmmaker's dinner party. He is doubting to some kind of mischief as people are hiding the names of prominent people.

"Seema Khan, wife of Suhail Khan did not reveal the names of everyone who attended the dinner at Johar's house, according to Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) officials. It was held on December 8th, I believe. BMC officials contacted Kareena Kapoor for contact information, and the names she omitted became public. It calls into question the number of people who attended the party "As stated by Ashish Shelar according to PTI

"I emailed the BMC, asking if the Regency building's CCTV footage, where Johar lives, had been secured. If that's the case, why is it being postponed until the number of people expected to attend is known? According to BMC officials, no such footage has been obtained thus far "Added the former minister.

As Mumbai tries to keep the rapidly spreading Omicron from causing another surge, what has been referred to as an "intimate gathering" has come under scrutiny.

My Gathering cannot be referred to as party or social gathering: Karan Johar 

"By God's grace, my family and I, as well as everyone else in the house, have finished our RTPCR tests, and we're all NEGATIVE!" I am vaccinated twice. I sincerely admire the BMC's valiant efforts to ensure our city's security... They should be commended. I'd like to clarify for some members of the media that an intimate gathering of eight people is not a "social gathering".
