New Delhi: Union Minister Babul Supriyo took a swipe at Kannada actor Prakash Raj after BJP appeared to emerge victorious in the state elections in Karnataka. Punning on the actor’s surname, Supriyo said the actor may be sulking since BJP is all set to form the government. “Dear Raju, You may sulk, now that BJP is all set to form the Government. ???????? Wish you all the very best in your forthcoming films but plz don’t give up on your efforts to Seek some extra publicity by being a ‘Bully’ & I am not even suggesting that one who loses is a loser,” the singer-turned politician tweeted.

Ahead of elections in the state, the minister and the actor had a heated debate during a conclave organized by an English news television channel. Raj had lashed out at Supriyo for threatening to skin alive local residents of Asansol last week. Supriyo defended his stand saying he had spoken to the Imam for 15 minutes on Friday night. He  used those words for Trinamool workers who were creating a ruckus. The actor was referring to Supriyo’s visit to Asansol which saw communal violence following Ram Navami processions. In the run-up to elections, the ‘Wanted’ actor had been vehemently opposing the BJP at several events and also attacking the saffron party through his Twitter account.
