BJP MP Yogi Adityanath slammed Bollywood actor Anupam Kher as a  "real life villain" on Tuesday.

"Kher is not only a reel life villain, but also in real life. I don't want to say anything more on his statement made in Kolkata,"The Times of India quoted Adityanath saying.
During The Telegraph National Debate, Kher had said there were Yogis and Sadhvis in BJP, who spoke nonsense and "should be thrown out of the BJP and put behind bars."

Adityanath, who is usually outspoken, was remarkably guarded perhaps due to the high regard with which BJP leaders, including Modi, hold Kher.

But Adityanath is a political heavyweight in his own right, who can win from Gorakhpur with or without BJP's support.

Kher has rubbed Adityanath in the wrong way earlier as well.

After Adityanath had attacked Shahrukh Khan last year on the intolerance controversy, Kher had disagreed with him. He had compared Adityanath to Congress  motormouth Digvijaya Singh and said such talk was stupid.
