Beef Ban Controversy: Was Rishi Kapoor misunderstood? (Read the whole story)
Not just Rishi Kapoor but even other celebrities strongly opposed to the ban on beef on other social media and blamed the hypocrisy it followed. You tell us what do you think?
Government of Maharastra has imposed a ban on beef which has not pleased everyone. The move generated some mummers as well as the protestwhich was not against the Government or the law, but it’s against the ridiculous explanation that followed. Recently actor Rishi Kapoor went his anger by taking to twitter. The B-town star protested saying, “I am angry. Why do you equate food with religion?? I am a beef eating Hindu. Does that mean I am less God-fearing than a non-eater? Think!!” (Read: After beef ban, Haryana Assembly passes Bill banning cow slaughter)

Yes I ate cattle specially bred elsewhere in the world for food like millions like me not killing Gau Maa. Never ever did that here. Sad!

But it seemed as if several other people criticized him over his tweet and abused him for the same. Rishi Kapoor still posted another tweet which described that beef was his favorite meal which is banned by the Government. Rishi further wrote, “Aapko naheen khaana beef/pork mat khao. Ultimately your Karma counts not fu****g dictates by bigots. Karo Apna kiddos. Karm achche hon bas!”
After so much controversy and accusations, Rishi Kapoor did not withdraw but instead blocked few trolls which created several nuisances.
Fed up fed up! When did I say cow slaughter or gau Maas khata hoon. Ye aapne socha aisa maine naheen kaha. Do waqt ki puja karta hoon main

Soon after this tweet several people questioned Rishi whether he was in favour of animal killing as his tweet described the same.
Knew this would go wrong!When did I say I have “Gau Maas”and I kill cows? Yes I eat beef where cattle are bred for food legally Not in India
— rishi kapoor (@chintskap) March 16, 2015
But Rishi clarified his tweet and wrote, “Please don’t get me wrong. I do not advocate killing of animals. I am against this shit of double standards of politicians to suit themselves.”
