Mumbai, Sept. 14 -- A Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) worker and Mumbai resident released a video showcasing Muslims as a community against Hindu festivals.

It shows "model" Manish Bhanushali, dressed in a white ensemble, sporting a long beard and a Marathi topi, telling a person portraying a Muslim man that this year's Ganesh visarjan (Ganesh immersion) procession will pass through his locality.

"Iss saal nahi hoga. Tere Bappa ko iss saal doosri gali se leke jaana. (Not this year)."

"Bhai rivaaz hai, kaise todenge? (How can we break our traditions?) asks Bhanushali.

"Todna hoga, varna mere bacche tereko kaat dalenge (You have to, or be ready to get cut into pieces)."

'We respect all religions,' says Bhanushali
