Actor Piyush Mishra criticized veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah for supporting the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) protest in Mumbai while remaining silent on other recent issues.

Mishra's video, addressing Shah as an old acquaintance, urged him to acknowledge these events and questioned his selective activism amid ongoing public debates.
