Controversial, big-mouthed director Ram Gopal Varma, who is more famous for his bold tweets than his films, is now in a big problem. The 52 year old director took to Twitter on the occasion of Ganesha Chaturthi with following tweets:
“Does Lord Ganesha eat with his hands or his trunk?”
“I would really love to know from Lord Ganesha’s devotees a list of what obstacles he removed in all the years they prayed to him”
“I have an innocent question…can someone please tell me how a Lord who couldn’t save his own head will save others heads?”
“Does Lord Ganesha eat much more than other Gods? My doubt is because all the other Gods are either trim or muscular”
“Did Lord Ganesha have a paunch in his childhood too or did it develop in the recovery time of the elephant head operation?”
“Can someone explain how someone can cut off a child’s head who was just trying to protect his mother’s modesty? Am sure devotees know better”
“I think my films are flopping only becos of my attitude towards Gods. ..I wish I can become a devotee”
The tweets shocked the twitter users and he instantly received many tweets demanding apologies. RGV immediately apologized for his tweets:
“All concerned pls undrstand tht my questions nd observations on Ganesha are coming from both my innocence nd ignorance on the subject matter”\
“All tweets I put on Ganesha were in my usual manner but unintended by me to hurt anyone’s sentiments…but if they did I sincerely apologize”
A day after his shocking tweets, A local BJP leader named Gopal filed complaint at the Shahinayathgunj Police Station against RGV for his anti-religion tweets. Also, an advocate- K Karunasagar had filed complaint against RGV at Saroornagar police station. He was booked under Sections 153-A (promoting enmity between different religious groups) and other sections.
