Ram Gopal Varma is the new KRK of Twitter. And he has unleashed his wrath again, of course only to be trashed by Twitterati that knows better. On Women’s Day when we are all trying to thank the women in our life and give them their due every day, the director of ‘Aag’ chose to expose his shallow thinking with this tweet.
I wish all the women in the world give men as much happiness as Sunny Leone gives

Er, Mr Varma there IS a Men’s Day and it’s celebrated on November 19
Is there no #MensDay because all days in the year belong to only men and the women were given just only one day?

Creep alert!
Women's day should be called #MensDay because men celebrate women much more than women celebrate women
— Ram Gopal Varma (@RGVzoomin) March 8, 2017
Facepalm!
On behalf of all men I hereby wish all the women a Very Happy #MensDay

That Mr Varma’s grey cells cannot anymore differentiate between good humour and crass distasteful jokes is clear from his past blunders. Only last week he had compared Tiger Shroff to ‘bikini babe, Urmila Matondkar’:
@iTIGERSHROFF U are great at martial arts but if BRUCE LEE ever posed like a bikini babe like u he wouldn't hav bcm BRUCE LEE..Please think pic.twitter.com/4Y8jvOP77T

While sexism runs deep in Bollywood, be it the clothes on a woman or the pay she gets, nobody puts it more crudely than Varma. Get well soon, RGV! Find some other outlet to vent out your ‘aag’.
