Swami Prasad Maurya’s comment
Posting on his social media handle on Saturday, Swami Prasad Maurya wrote, “Some people are shedding crocodile tears in the name of insulting Brahmins regarding the film ‘Ghushkhor Pandit’. Whereas the name of the film has no connection with Brahmins. Even if it was so, then according to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat ji, Pandit does not mean Brahmin, it means ‘scholar’. Pandit can also be the name of any person.” Well, the producer and producer of the film Ghooskhor Pandit is Neeraj Pandey and the hero of the film is Manoj Bajpayee, that is, the producer and hero of the film are all Brahmins, so how can a ‘Brahmin’ insult a Brahmin.
