As usual, maverick director Ram Gopal Varma, has taken to Twitter to differ from the frenzied Jallikattu fans. He said 'brutalising poor animals' is Tamil culture, then Al Qaida's culture of beheading innocents is also right.'

He posted a series of tweets justifying Jallikattu ban and slamming the film folks who are protesting. Here are the tweets:

Govt restricts filmmakers to show even crow or dog but allows bulls to be brutally harassed for cultural entertainment #jaijallikattu

Just by giving it name of culture #jaijallikattu cannot escape from it's true tradition of torturing innocent animals for people's pleasure

Each of the #jaijallikattu supporters should be made to run with 100's of Bulls chasing and then I want to hear him talk about his feelings

Celebrities in TN protesting against #jaijallikattu should have their ears pulled n backs hugged by 100s to know the poor animals feelings

If Tamil #jaijallikattu culture is about brutalising poor animals then Al Qaeda's culture of beheading innocent people also is right

Instead of chasing a defenseless animal for pleasure why don't #jaijallikattu guys chase a human being..They won't cos they know it pains
