New Delhi: Ram Gopal Verma is going through a rough phase these days and all because of his heinous tactics. After insulting Lord Ganesha, the Satya directorial has invited another controversy through the poster of his upcoming Telugu flick Savitri, which now after being criticized by numerous groups is changed to Sridevi.

The first poster displays a school boy staring the midriff of a lady clad in red sari. First of its kind in Bollywood, the flick narrates the teenagers fascination towards a woman and with its vulgur portrayal this was obvious that this poster wont go down well with the numerous social groups and activists safeguarding child rights.
Moreover, the press note circulated by the makers does nothing except to escalate the issue. It asks people to share their teenage crush stories. Who is your Savitri? Please share the experiences of such Savitris, so we would incorporate them in this movie. So, Get Lucky with Savitri, RGVs press note reads reportedly.

Ram Gopal Vermas intention over portraying juveniles fascination may be different in the movie as in an interview to a leading daily recalling his childhood crush he said that he was mad after his English teacher Saraswathi during his schooldays. That Saraswathi is now my Savitri. I am launching this Savitri movie with the inspiration of those several Saraswathis you came across in your lives. Against this background, I am launching a contest Who is your Savitri?
As teen, no adult could deny that they didnt have a crush in their respective lives. RGV asked viewers to send in the details of their first crush in their respective lives, which could be a woman next door or in your opposite house, or your elder sisters friend or your tuition teacher.

But the directors approach of presenting the entire scenario isnt a welcome idea as what its first poster speaks. His Sridevi mixes the so called crush with obsession and lust and if it releases with this content, we are afraid that it would encourage teenagers looking out for options for satisfying their sexual desires thereby making their present and future gloomy.
The State Child Rights Protection Commission has objected the poster and has termed it vulgar and is a violation of child rights. They also held that violating child rights by involving children in any obscene or vulgar scenes or picturisation is a crime under Section 292 sub-clauses (I) and (II) of the IPC and punishable with imprisonment of five years or more.
Now the matter of the fact is will Verma step back or face the rage surrounding?
