Writer Shobhaa De learned the hard way that it doesn't pay
to mess with emotions of Indians, particularly when it comes to sports, when
she made an unpleasant tweet about the performance of Indian athletes at the
Rio Olympics, but it seems that eccentric filmmaker Ram Gopal Varmais hell-bent
on rubbing people the wrong way.
Taking to his Twitter page, Ramu posted, ''If for one silver
we are jumping up and down screaming Mera Bharat Mahan. how high should be
Americans jumping for 46 gold and 37 silver. A 32 crore population US wins 46
gold and a 5 crore population South Korea wins 9 gold nd a 120 crores
population india wins 1 silver..Wah! Combined value of 46 gold 38 silver 49
bronze compared to just 1 silver is that many times more Unka US Mahan compared
to Apna Bharat Mahan. If for 1 silver we call ourselves incredible india what
should US call itself for 46 gold 37 silver and 49 bronze..just asking? If for
just 1 silver we call ourselves incredible india I wonder what we will call
ourselves if we ever win 46 gold 37 silver and 49 bronze?''
