Chetan has said that, ‘Bhoot Kola’ is a ritual practiced by the natives of the state and has been present since before the existence of Hinduism in India. The police have received several complaints against Chetan for his remarks on non-violence on the ‘Bhoot Kola’ ritual.

The complainants alleged that Chetan has insulted Hinduism and his statements are allegedly aimed at creating a rift between different castes. Chetan had slammed the film ‘Kantara’ director and actor Rishabh Shetty for claiming that the ‘Bhoot Kola’ on which the film is based is a ritual practiced by Hindus.

Responding to Chetan’s statements of non-violence, Rishabh Shetty had said that people will answer him. Hindu organizations have objected to Chetan’s remarks of non-violence. Complaints have been registered at various places and police have started investigation. ‘Bhoot Kola’ is a ritual during which people worship spirits who in turn counsel them on many issues.
