It is known that the comments made by famous director S.S. Rajamouli on Lord Hanuman at the Globe Trotter event recently have become extremely controversial. Already condemning these comments, many Hindu groups have not only released videos criticizing Rajamouli but also demanded that he apologize. However, BJP MLA Raja Singh has recently reacted strongly to Rajamouli’s comments. He demanded that Rajamouli should declare it publicly if he is a true atheist. Raja Singh also called for the Hindu community to boycott every film directed by Rajamouli.
Rajamouli, who has earned crores by making films on gods, why make those films when he does not believe in gods? Raja Singh questioned. Raja Singh said that Rajamouli has made arbitrary comments on gods in the past as well. Moreover, Raja Singh demanded that Rajamouli immediately clarify and apologize whether he made such comments intentionally for the promotions of his new film ‘Varanasi’. Raja Singh also sternly warned that whoever speaks wrongly about religion will be shown what will happen. However, it remains to be seen how Rajamouli will react to these comments.
What really happened?
When a technical problem arose at the Globe Trotter event, Jakkana’s father Vijayendra Prasad came to Rajamouli and said that everything would be set if he called Hanuman. However, Rajamouli said on this matter.. I don’t believe in God as usual. My father came and said that Hanuman will be behind me.. He will lead me with his heart.. I immediately got angry… I thought this was the one who would lead me. My daughter loves Hanuman very much.. She talks to him like a friend.. I also got angry with my daughter… What kind of a person would she do? He said. However, Rajamouli’s comments hurt the sentiments of many Hindu groups as well as BJP leaders. With this, defenders of Sanatana Dharma are demanding that Rajamouli immediately apologize.
