Website draws Omar Abdullah's ire for 'Haider' post, withdraws it

SRINAGAR: Slamming a news portal for claiming that he had complained to filmmaker Vishal Bharadwaj about the movie ' Haider', Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said he has not even seen the film, following which the web post was removed.

"So this website has to be awarded for the most amazing work of fiction I've seen in a very long time."

"Let's be very clear I haven't seen Haider, I don't know when & even if I'll get down to seeing it much less writing to Vishal about it," Omar wrote on micro-blogging site Twitter.

Oneindia.in took off the post soon after Omar tweeted about the post.

"So where oneindia.in heard that I'd seen the movie & proceeded to complain to Vishal about it I'll never know. I expect a retraction," the Chief Minister wrote.
