August 18, 2015 03:56 IST

The Mumbai police on Monday said they have received written complaints against singer Sonu Nigam over his tweet about controversial god woman Radhe Maa.

Nigam, in his tweet, had compared Radhe Maa to a Hindu goddess, said the police.

"The police received two applications against Nigam for his tweet regarding Radhe Ma a few days ago," said deputy commissioner of police M Dahikar.

The Samtanagar and Sakinaka police stations received two applications against the singer, requesting police to file a first information report, for "hurting religious sentiments".

"The police haven't filed any FIR against the singer yet," Dahikar said.
