Sparking an outrage Varma had posted that “The guy who couldn't save his own head from being cut , how he will save others heads is my question? But Happy Ganpathi day to morons!”

He later posted many more updates following the above -

BJP and VHP has asked for an immediate apology and action to be taken against Varma because it offended the religious sentiments of the Hindus.
