But it was later revealed that he did not make the advertisement. Still, people's reactions didn't stop. The Bachelor Point creator has given a status on Facebook about the matter.
Kajal Arefin Omi wrote in the status given on Tuesday (June 11) afternoon, 'Humanity and conscience are two things that make a person a complete human being. I always try to keep humanity and conscience awake through my work. Since last Eid ul-Fitr, we have been shooting Female-4 in the heat wave for 12 consecutive days on a wide scale and the whole unit works hard together, just to entertain you. I always try to speak for ordinary people. To highlight the little things in their lives. In the continuation of that, I made Bidesh, kidney, Doi, Sheshmesh and with your love, I am here today. I am overwhelmed with emotion and grateful to you.'
He also wrote that an advertisement involves an agency, company and ad creator. Since yesterday, my viewers, my family and the countrymen have been giving different reactions to the issue of the advertisement, I want to make one thing clear to everyone that I am not involved in that advertisement in any way. I'm a director. When actors and actresses come to work on my project, I only give them directions. I have no involvement in their personal lives, their work, their journeys. Of course, they are my team members. But that's only when they're doing the job. They have private lives out there.
