Dhirendra Shastri's remark on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj sparks row, Riteish calls it nonsense

Dhirendra Shastri, aka Bageshwar Baba, has sparked a controversy by making unverified claims about Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Shastri had claimed the warrior king had got tired of fighting wars and asked Ramdas Swami to handle his kingdom. Reacting to this, Riteish Deshmukh wrote, "When someone…spews distorted nonsense about our cherished deity, as a Shiv-premi-Shiv-bhakt, it's unacceptable."
