Television actor Aly Goni recently found himself on the receiving end of backlash after a video of him not chanting 'Ganpati Bappa Morya' in front of paparazzi during Ganpati celebrations in Mumbai went viral. He was seen attending the Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations with his girlfriend, actress Jasmin Bhasin in the video. The incident quickly sparked controversy; however, the actor clarified his stance, saying his silence was not intentional. He explained that his actions stemmed from confusion and a respect for religious boundaries. However, seems like trolls haven't slowed down despite his clarification.
Aly says he is receiving death threats
Aly has now revealed that he has been receiving death threats for not chanting 'Ganpati Bappa Morya,' and that his emails are filled with threats. Even on his social media, the comments section is flooded with abusive messages. Talking to Filmygyan, he said, "Log tweet kar rahe hain ki mere liye FIR karo, for what? Main toh bohot normal si baat bolta hoon ki main toh Musalman hoon, isliye mere par daala gaya, par kai Hindu hain jo Ganpati nahi laate hain, kya woh Hindu nahi hain?"
Aly further warned trolls who have been abusing his girlfriend, Jasmin, saying that anyone threatening or abusing his girlfriend should have the courage to come face-to-face with him and say it to his face. He said, "I swear on God, main gardan kaat kar haath mein de dunga. Meri maa, behen ya Jasmine ke baare mein koi bolega toh I will not tolerate."
Aly Goni's earlier clarification
In an earlier conversation with Filmygyan, Aly had clarified that his silence wasn’t meant to disrespect anyone. He had shared, “The day this thing happened, I didn’t even realise it. People who know me, are aware that I respect all religions. I was lost in my thoughts. I am aware of what people are saying about me. Twitter (X) is bad in this matter as they relentlessly troll women as well. I remember a lady abusing my mom, Jasmine and her mother. If I want to disrespect any religion, I won’t deck up and go there. I never imagined something like this could create such a big issue. This was my first time attending Ganpati celebrations…I usually don’t go. I didn’t know what exactly I was supposed to do there, and I always worry that I might unintentionally do something wrong," he said.
He further added, “It’s not allowed in my religion, hum puja nahi karte hai. We have one belief — we offer namaz, we pray, and we respect all religions. It is written in the Quran that we must respect everyone, and I do. Trolling is very normal for us, but involving religious things is not done.
Meanwhile, Jasmin has not yet responded to the backlash Aly has been facing.
