Bollywood writer Kanika slammed screenwriter Navjot Gulati for his sexist comments in a post.

She stated that Navjot has a ‘pea brain’ which will not be able to process a successful woman making it on her own. She also continued and told him he might have a brain freeze.
Kanika replied and wrote, “Hi @Navjotalive I am quite shocked by ur extremely SEXIST - MYSOGINIST and bordering on IDIOTIC comment Neither will I list down my body of work cos ur pea-sized brain will not be able to process a successful woman making it on her own! U may have a brain freeze! Have a good day." In another tweet, Dhillon said, “And Mr @Navjotalive because of writers like YOU - who display their STUPIDITY on something that should be Applauded as a welcome step by the writing fraternity- other very deserving writers do not get top Billing as is their right—- shame on u!"

The Thappad actress replied and tweeted, “A progressive call to credit a writer turned into a sexist rant by the age-old misogyny of crediting a woman’s success to the house she marries in or the man she married.
