Complaint filed against Ranbir Kapoor over viral Christmas video
According to a report in PTI, a police complaint was filed by Sanjay Tiwari at Ghatkopar police station through his lawyers Ashish Rai and Pankaj Mishra on Wednesday. The complaint was filed against Ranbir Kapoor and his family members over the viral Christmas video that showed them celebrating Christmas. No First Information Report (FIR) has been registered in the case yet.
Sanjay Tiwari, who filed the complaint, claimed that in the viral Christmas video, Ranbir is seen pouring liquor on a cake and setting it on fire while chanting ‘Jai Mata Di’. The complaint mentioned that in Hinduism, the fire god is invoked before invoking other deities, but Ranbir Kapoor and his family members deliberately used intoxicants while celebrating the festival of another religion and chanted “Jai Mata Di”. It alleged that this hurt the complainant’s religious sentiments.
