In 2018, Bhasker had slammed Kerala MLA PC George for making objectionable remarks against the nun demanding the arrest of a bishop who allegedly raped her. "Shameful and disgusting!!!! Scum is present across political spectrums and religious divides in India. Nauseating!" the actor tweeted concerning George's statement.
