Celebrities are often associated with luxury, fame, glamour, and constant media coverage. However, the high-profile life has a flip side, and it comes with a cost, particularly when legal issues arise. A recent example involves Ranbir Kapoor, who, along with his family, is facing a complaint filed in Mumbai. The allegation stems from a video of their Christmas celebration, accused of offending religious sentiments. Below, we take a look into five celebrities who have encountered legal troubles due to unusual reasons.
Ranbir Kapoor’s Viral Christmas Video
A Mumbai resident, Sanjay Tiwari, expressed displeasure over a viral Christmas video featuring Ranbir Kapoor, leading him to file a complaint against the actor and his family at the Ghatkopar police station on Wednesday. Tiwari, represented by lawyers Ashish Rai and Pankaj Mishra, asserted that in the video, Kapoor pours liquor on a cake and sets it on fire while saying "Jai Mata Di." The complaint argues that this action, where intoxicants were deliberately used during the celebration of a different religion's festival, goes against Hindu traditions. Tiwari claims that it hurt his religious sentiments.
