Now, BJP wants ‘RRR’ Oscar glory credit to go to Modi
Union Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal claimed that 'RRR' winning an Oscar was an acknowledgement of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's quality in nominating members to the Rajya Sabha.
Hyderabad: The Bharatiya Janata Party’s attempts to credit the ‘RRR’ Oscar glory to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, that too linking what they call his ‘quality in nominating members to the Rajya Sabha’, has left Twitterati in splits, with many even asking how low the saffron party could stoop.
This was after Union Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal on Monday claimed that the ‘RRR’ movie winning an Oscar was an acknowledgement of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s quality in nominating members to the Rajya Sabha since the film script writer V Vijayendra Prasad was nominated to the house a few months ago.
Sharing a news report clipping, a creative director and communications consultant, GS Sridhar tweeted “Modern interpretation of all roads lead to Rome.”
“The way ministers past and present are tweeting about our Oscar wins and crediting Modi for it – somehow, anyhow – a friend was tempted to comment: “Won’t be surprised if they rename it Moscars.”
Another Twitter user Vazhapadi Karnan Ramamurthy tweeted: “RS Member was Script Writer and a RSS member. Oscar was won for Song, that’s lyric writer. Their is difference between Lyric and Script. This will be too much for a Minister like @PiyushGoyal to understand. Wants to take credit of any individual efforts made by ordinary Indian.” (Sic)

Interestingly, IT Minister KT Rama Rao had tweeted on Monday, in connection with BJP State president’s about turn on ‘RRR’, that it won’t be long before the ‘same bigot’ says the award was given only because of Modi.
Not before long, the SAME Bigot will tell you the Award was given only because of Modi 😂 https://t.co/8Z0hp6FETl
