RGV Goes On A Long Rant Against Tamil Nadu & South Celebs For Protesting Jallikattu Ban!
Trust RGV to give his opinions on everything and anything. The filmmaker is notorious for randomly ranting about everything under the stars. This time around the Veerappan director decided to give his piece of mind on the ongoing Jallikatu nationwide debate.

For the uninitiated, Jallikatu ¨C a bull ¡®hugging¡¯ festival, has become a national issue of sorts, ever since SC put a stay order on it. Tamilians started revolting against this decision as they feel that it¡¯s an insult to their traditions. They have been holding peaceful protests in Tamil Nadu condemning SC¡¯s decision, which was petitioned by PETA.

Even Celebs of South India¡¯s film industry like Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Ajith, Vijay, Mahesh Babu, Suriya and others have voiced their support for the protests. They even held a dharna at Marina Beach to show their solidarity. Together they are prompting the government to enforce an ordinance over the ban.

Now, according to RGV, the concept of Jallikattu is barbaric to animals. Calling it ¡®barbarism of making an innocent animal suffer for social entertainment by cowardly hiding behind culture¡¯, RGV went on to even compare it with ¡®Al Qaeda¡¯. He drew a comparison with their beheading innocent people to the national sport.

Govt restricts filmmakers to show even crow or dog but allows bulls to be brutally harassed for cultural entertainment #jaijallikattu

Ears ,horns cut,mutilated,tail bones dislocated,poked with knives tortured with nose ropes causing death .#jaijallikattu is Barbarism

Protesting against barbarism of #jaijallikattu is very much in tune with worshipping tribalish/feudal culture of Jayalalitha and Sasikala
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Just by giving it name of culture #jaijallikattu cannot escape from it's true tradition of torturing innocent animals for people's pleasure
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Each of the #jaijallikattu supporters should be made to run with 100's of Bulls chasing and then I want to hear him talk about his feelings
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
#jaijallikattu is enjoying a barbarism of making an innocent animal suffer for social entertainment by cowardly hiding behind culture
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Celebrities in TN protesting against #jaijallikattu should have their ears pulled n backs hugged by 100s to know the poor animals feelings
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Only Because #jaijallikattu supporters are barbarians they want to fight for their right to torture poor innocent defence less animals
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
If Tamil #jaijallikattu culture is about brutalising poor animals then Al Qaeda's culture of beheading innocent people also is right
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Atleast 10 animals should be set after each #jaijallikattu human protestor for him to know what poor bull feels when 1000's are chasing
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Torturing defenseless living beings for personal entertainment in the name of culture and tradition is worse than terrorism #jaijallikattu
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
#jaijallikattu is a true throwback to the tremendously ugly diasporic thinkinginglynonthinking of Tamilian culturastic non culture
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Fighting for #jaijallikattu more than who should lead them shows real culture of Tamilians ..I don't want to wish any of them all the best
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
The choice of their leaders itself tells about the really true culture of #jaijallikattu people more than the poor tortured innocent bulls
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Celebrities are supporting #jaijallikattu for votes and tickets ..But who can support poor innocent voiceless animals from barbaric torture?
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
If poor innocent animals also had voting power and could buy tickets no celebrity would have dared to support #jaijallikattu
¡ª Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) January 20, 2017
Bottom line of #jaijallikattu is each supporter should be made to be chased by a 1000 Bulls and then let's see how much they will protest?
