Ram Gopal Varma reacts to the ‘Oppenheimer’ Bhagwat Gita controversy: ‘Irony is that…’ | Hindi Movie News – Times of India
Now, Ram Gopal Varmawho is known to voice his opinions on social media quite boldly, has reacted to this controversy.
The ‘Satya’ director wrote, “Irony is that an American nuclear scientist Oppenheimer read the Bhagwad Geeta which I doubt even 0.0000001 % of Indians read.”
Several users reacted to RGV’s tweet and many even agreed to him. One user wrote, “As a devotee of our Hindu faith, I didn’t find anything offensive while watching, especially that scene when Oppie reads the lines from Bhagavad Gita!” Another one said, “Just to add to it, He read it in Sanskrit! Which will take away that 0.0000001% as well.”
However, some users also trolled him and asked if he has read it. Meanwhile, in a chat with ETimes, Nitish Bhardwaj who played Lord Krishna in Mahabharata and recited the verses of Bhagwad Gita, has also reacted to this. He expressed that the audience should try and understand the scene and this line from Bhagwad Gita from Oppenheimer’s emotional state of being.
Meanwhile, the film is doing great business at the Indian box office. It collected Rs 14.5 crore nett on its opening day.
