Agitations against Ram Gopal Varma for posting objectionable tweets against the revered elephant god, Lord Ganesha, has now spread to Ramu's home-town Hyderabad.

A group of Ganesha devotees burnt Ramu's effigy in Hyderabad. However, Ramu has considerable support within the Telugu film industry , unlike the Mumbai film industry which has completely disowned Ramu and dissociated itself from his controversial antics.

A filmmaker who has earlier directed a film for RGV says, "Ramuji is isolating himself from everyone. This time he has gone too far and is unlikely to get any support from Bollywood. People are disgusted by his gimmicks."

Says a source close to Ramu, "The problem that Ramu's tweets has created, won't go away that easily. There are many criminal cases against him now."

Meanwhile, back in Mumbai, the law enforcement is geared up to protect RGV's home.

The source adds, "Ramu's man Friday is locked up in the house while Ramu's home is swarming with cops. He keeps calling Ramu in a panic asking what is to be done. Ramu's answer is....nothing. So far, Ramu has not had a visit from any cops, nor has he received any summons to present himself in a police station. He is not the least shaken or nervous."
