Director Ram Gopal Varma on Saturday criticised the attack on Sanjay Leela Bhansali claiming that any dog, monkey, and donkey can become Censor Board. Varma tweeted, "Bhansali is an artiste and if any country cannot protect its artistes from hooligans it doesn't deserve to be called a country.” He further added, "Rajput Karni Sena should be kicked on their back side with spiked boots."
