New Delhi: Actor turned politician Sanjay Dutt has landed in another controversy.
This time he made an offer of a jadu ki jhappi (magical hug) to Uttar Pradesh chief minister Mayawati.
Sanjay Dutt said, “I haven't come here to give a speech, mos1 I've come here to do 'Gandhigiri', I will give Mayawati a jaadu ki jhappi, and a big kiss.”
In the film, Munnabhai's gesture would turn enemies into friends, but the belligerent behenji of the BSP is not the sort who turns the other cheek and clearly is no fan of Munnabhai's Gandhigiri either.
Mayawati saw this as an opportunity to score political points against her rival camp Samajwadi Party (SP) and decided that this was too sexist a remark for her to ignore in keeping with the jee huzoori in UP.
The Pratapgarh DM has promptly served a notice to Sanjay Dutt asking him to explain himself within 24 hours.
The District Magistrate has also asked the police to investigate if the matter requires a case to be registered against Dutt junior.
Unfortunately for SP's star campaigner, this is the second time he's gotten into trouble this election season.
On the April 14, a criminal case had been registered against him in Mau district for making communal remarks.
