Karnataka Court Gives Temp Relief To Ranveer Singh

Karnataka High Court has today passed orders that there should not be any official action taken on Ranveer Singh regarding in the pending cases in connection with the actor in impersonating Panjari Deity, where he tried to do a Kantara act at IFFI, Goa. The court stopped the police from taking action on the actor based on the FIR, they have already registered, giving temporary relief to the Bollywood star.

Back in November last year, at the International Film Festival of India, Goa, both Ranveer Singh and Rishabh Shetty attended as the chief guests along with other star actors and directors. Getting excited with Rishab Shetty's entry, Ranveer Singh tried to imitate his performance from the Kantara movie, where the former took everyone by storm in theatres with his God possession act. Ranveer even stated that Daiva Chavundi of coastal Karnataka is a ‘female ghost’, at the same time, Rishabh Shetty tried to stop him.

While the clips of Ranveer's performance went viral online, people from Karnataka have filed cases at various Police stations in the state, citing the hero's act as offensive and hurting religious sentiments. Though Ranveer Singh apologised in December through his Instagram page, the petitioners haven't been convinced and went ahead with the cases.

At the same time, the Karnataka High Court also ordered Ranveer Singh to cooperate with the police regarding the probe.
