Controversial genius Ram Gopal Varma who keeps searching for burning and sensational issues to create new controversies could find nothing better than ‘India’s performance at Rio Olympics’ to make headlines.
Varma ridiculed Indians for enjoying the success of just 1 silver medal at Rio. He compared India, a country with 120 crore population, with the US, a country with only 32 croe population, and said that the latter has won 46 gold and 37 silver medals in comparison.
“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! 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?,” tweeted the volatile vodka ambassador.
RGV’s tweets didn’t go well with the twitterati for obvious reasons. Many have started trolling him comparing with Rajamouli. ‘if you call yourself a great director for ‘Satya’, what would you have called yourself if you had made ‘Baahubali’,’ questioned one.
Another one pointed out, ‘One Kohli can beat the hell out of a full member USA cricket team so stop comparing the two nations. We also have our strengths.’
RGV must realize that India is a developing nation and sports-persons have to break many taboos and parental pressures to shine here whereas US is a well-developed nation with plenty of opportunities. It will take time for India to compete with US at Olympic arena and meanwhile it is not a sin to enjoy the success of our athletes.
