RISHI KAPOOR OPENS UP ON FIR CASE OVER AN INDECENT CHILD'S PHOTO

Talking about this, the actor added, “It was just about a child playing with his backside nude, with an earphone, and the wire up his a**... and I said this is what is happening today with all these godmen talking nonsense and getting arrested. But people made a great issue out of it. I guess they don’t have any other work. This isn’t a serious offence, that I have hurt someone’s sensibility or some personal grief has been given to somebody. Is this a democracy, or what? Can anybody file an FIR against anybody anywhere?”

Rishi talked about how his fans reacted to the complaint, "My fans have pointed out that this photo has been doing the rounds of social media for almost two-and-a-half years. Just because I posted it, people are creating an issue. So my fans have taken up the cudgels against the FIR. I also don’t know how my tweet is offensive to the Jai Ho Foundation. Just because we’re celebrities, it’s blown out of proportion. This is just harassment of the celebrities. I’ve never been malicious about anything. I’ve always tried to poke fun about what’s happening.” About the legal ramifications of the police complaint, he says, “Who cares about such complaints? My lawyers are ready to take care of the situation. I don’t pay attention to such things; they keep happening all the time. People enjoy my tweets. I have so many followers who enjoy my tweets. If someone doesn’t like me, then they’re welcome to unfollow me,"

However, Rishi Kapoor had deleted the tweet from the page after the controversy.
