Offlate, the actor was in controversy for some political comments..The one that he said about preferring Modi's lap over other politicians. Other comment that caught media's attention and was highly condemned was his insensitive remark on soliders dying on border.

Even after death, he is not free from controversies

There are people like RG and kejriwal everywhere. Specially in neighbouring Pakistan, where a reporter seems to have said that Narendra Modi is the one behind the sudden death of Om Puri.

Funny to hear that Pakistan TV anchor's charge that  Om puri  died at at the behest of Modi and  national security advisor Ajit Dowal.  Such stements Desrve to be thrown in the nearest dustbin

Is it their frustration or mindset that is to blame ? because Pakistan and it's leaders come up with the most absurd statements where India is concerned. Some of them are not just ridiculous but downright funny !!

Mere frustration. Nothing else.Pakistan's frustration, I can understand. Because Pakistan is our enemy country. But, Rahul and his party always look for an opportunity to destabilize  the Government.

True, at the same time I feel that the celebrities have it tough because any stray remarks they utter gets blown out of proportion and normally out f context. All he more reason for them to be cautious because that is a price they have to pay for all the other benefits they reap ..

Undoubtedly, Om Puri was a very talented character actor. His death is untimely and tragic. 

Om Puri is the face of the common man. He was an acting giant. A .great human being.

There was some video on Youtube which mentioned that Om puri had converted to Islam. I wonder how true this is and why even Om contemplates it. Surely, you can't have smoke without a fire, however small.
