Recently, a complaint was lodged at the Ghatkopar police station in Mumbai against Ranbir Kapoor for hurting religious sentiments as in a viral video it can be seen that he is pouring liquor on a cake and setting it on fire while saying “Jai Mata Di”. This has triggered serious allegations against him and his family members for allegedly hurting religious sentiments over a Christmas celebration video.
Ranbir Kapoor – Why the complaint was filed against him?
Ranbir and his family members were seen lavishly celebrating Christmas but cake cutting went wrong as it hurted the religious sentiments. According to Hinduism, the fire god is traditionally worshipped before other deities, and Kapoor and his family deliberately used intoxicants (liquor) in their celebration, all the while celebrating the festival of another religion.
The complaint was filed by Sanjay Tiwari and he alleged that the act of setting the cake on fire followed by the ‘Jai Mata Di’ chant hurt his religious sentiments. But no FIR has been registered in the case yet.
This viral video has been shared on Instagram by the official account of entertainment magazine Filmfare where it can be seen that a man apparently pours liquor over a cake as Ranbir, sitting beside Alia Bhatt, lights it and says ‘Jai Mata Di’. According to Filmfare, the video was from the Kapoor’s family Christmas lunch.
“Ranbir Kapoor can be seen bringing everyone to laughter with his ‘Jai Mata Di’ cheer while lighting up the cake during the Kapoor family’s Christmas lunch!” the caption of the Instagram post reads.
