These days one south movie is in news for its different plot and story. The movie also arise a debate that whether Bhoota Kala is a part of Hindu tradition or not.   A police complaint has been filed by Right-wing outfit Hindu Jagaran Vedike against on actor Chetan Ahimsa who had issued derogatory and insulting statements while making comments on the tradition of ‘Bhoota Kola’ used in the Kannada movie Kantara”. 

According to the complaint, repeated calls to contact the actor for his statement remained unanswered. The complaint also alleges that the actor had hurt the “religious sentiments of Hindus”.

 Kantara’s director Rishabh Shetty was asked whether Panjurli a spirit that takes the form of a wild boar – was depicted in the movie as a Hindu deity.  He said: “Those gods, they are all part of our tradition. Definitely, it is part of Hindu culture and rituals. Because I am a Hindu, I have belief and respect for my religion. But I will not say others are wrong. What we have said is through the element that is present in Hindu dharma. I am a Hindu and I believe in my religion and customs which nobody can question.”

Chetan Ahimsa had taken to Twitter and tweeted, “Glad our Kannada film ‘Kantara’ is making national waves. Director Rishabh Shetty claims Bhoota Kola is ‘Hindu culture. False. Our Pambada/Nalike/Parawa’s Bahujan traditions predate Vedic-Brahminical Hinduism. We ask that Moolnivasi cultures be shown w/truth on & off screen.”

After this tweet in a statement, he said,  “It is wrong to say that ‘Bhutakola’ is part of the Hindu religion. Adivasis practice the ritual and there is no ‘Brahminism’ in Bhoota Kola. Don’t say Hindu in the movie. It is the culture of the Adivasis. Do not put Adivasi culture in the column of Hindu religion,”.
