Mumbai, March 25 (IANS) Social media personality Hindustani Bhau, has now filed a writ petition against choreographer-director Farah Khan.

The petition is with regards to his complaint of her disrespecting the culture by calling Holi a festival that majorly celebrated by hooligans.

Hindustani Bhau had alleged that Farah referred to Holi as the “Festival of cchapris” during an episode of cooking reality show ‘Laughter Chefs’.

Earlier, he spoke with the media on Saturday, and said, “Today, in a reality show, it has been said that Holi is the festival of Chhapri people. Is it the festival of Chhapri people? You? It's not like you have never worked in the film industry, or you don't know about the world, or you haven't done a reality show, or you don't know what Sanatan Dharma is. It's not like that, right? Today, you are talking about Chhapri? From our Prime Minister Modi ji, to all the sadhus and saints, and to the 100 crore people of India, Holi is celebrated. And you are calling all these people Chhapri?”.

He further mentioned, “You are insulting Sanatan Dharma? And this is not something new for the Bollywood people. This is not something new. From the beginning of Bollywood, from the beginning, whenever they saw it, they only insulted our Sanatan Dharma, they only insulted our deities and goddesses. Whenever you see in their films, they always presented our Hindu Dharma, they always presented it as filth”.

“They presented it as filth in front of people. And no one can call them that, because they have power, they have money, they have everything, so no one can call them that. That's why they have guts. But today, their father is sitting here, Hindustani Bhau, who will not answer them, in a legal way, and in my way, he will answer them properly. I have filed an application against them in the Khar Police Station, that they should be prosecuted as soon as possible, and they should be punished”, he added.
