On June 22, Ram Gopal Varma tweeted, ‘If Droupadi is the President who are the Pandavas? And more importantly, who are the Kauravas?’

Have a look at Ram Gopal Varma’s tweet:

The tweet triggered a massive social media outrage following which a Lucknow-based social worker filed an FIR against the filmmaker at Hazratganj police station. Another case was filed against him in Telangana.

The social worker, Manoj Singh, in his complaint said the tweet is a deliberate attempt to vitiate the atmosphere that may lead to untoward incidents. The complaint also said the tweet hurts religious sentiments as it talks about a character of mythology Mahabharata in a bad light and humiliated women.

Following the FIRs, Ram Gopal Varma clarified that his tweet was an earnest irony and not intended in any other way. He also said Draupadi in Mahabharata is his favourite character, but since the name is such a rarity, he just remembered the associated characters and hence his expression which was not at all intended to hurt the sentiments of anyone.

The filmmaker also applauded Draupadi Murmu and said he has no doubt that she will be the greatest president ever in the whole wide world.

Have a look at Ram Gopal Varma’s tweet:

Meanwhile, soon after Droupdi Murmu was announced as the presidential candidate, the Odisha government Sunday led electrification work in the ancestral village of the NDA presidential candidate in Marurbhanj district.

Directed by Subhash Kapoor, this courtroom comedy-drama is slated to hit theatres on September 19, 2025, promising another entertaining chapter in the beloved franchise.

The duo recently wrapped up an extensive shooting schedule in Rajasthan, heightening anticipation for the film.

Released as a tribute to India’s military valour, the film recounts the historic 1965 Indo-Pakistan air war, focusing on India’s first airstrike on Pakistan’s Sargodha airbase. Co-starring Sara Ali Khan and Nimrat Kaur, it marked another patriotic addition to Akshay’s repertoire.
