Tahira Kashyap has recently apologise to fans who have criticised her for posting a picture of herself sitting in the lap of a Buddha statue. The filmmaker posted a statement saying that she was sorry for unintentionally agonising few people.
On her Instagram she wrote “I apologise if I have offended anybody, but I myself am a Nicherin’s Buddhism practitioner and I felt embraced in the lap of Buddha. Every religion, every philosophy is about love. In no way did I mean to disrespect (anyone). Sorry if I have hurt anyone. From my perspective there is only love.”
Tahira later deleted the post reiterating that she meant no offence by it. “I absolutely never want to be a source of hurt and pain for anyone. Sorry for unintentionally agonising few people, wish love and peace for everyone,” she wrote.
