The Shiv Sena today sought to downplay the controversy created by NCP chief Sharad Pawar's public reprimand of his grand-nephew Parth Pawar for seeking a CBI probe into actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death.

The political storm generated over the public rebuke by Sharad Pawar of his grand-nephew Parth Pawar was "not even a storm in the tea cup", said the ruling Shiv Sena, an ally of the NCP in Maharashtra.

Sharad Pawar had said on Wednesday that he attached "absolutely no importance" to Parth Pawar's demand for a CBI probe into the actor's death. Sharad Pawar also called Parth, who is the son of his nephew and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, "immature".
