New Delhi, Jan 24 (IBNS): Triggering a controversy, senior BJP Kailash Vijayvargiya has indulged in a word play while commenting on black money but seemed it turned to be an attack on Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan and his upcoming movie Raees.

The politician seemed to have wieghed on Khan's Raees and Hrithik Roshan's Kaabil, two movies which are schduled to hit the silversreen on the Republic Day week, as he tweeted: "और हमारे भारत के #Kaabil, किसी भी परदेस के #Raees से, हर हाल में बेहतर हैं।(Those Raees (rich) who are not loyal to the country are of no use. We should be supporting a Kaabil (able) patriot)."

The Congres came out to attack the BJP leader over the tweet.

Congress leader Randeep S Surjewala tweeted: "भाजपा के राष्ट्रीय महासचिव, कैलाश विजयवर्ग़िया ने साबित कर दिया है की ऐसे भाजपा नेता राजनीति के 'क़ाबिल' नहीं हैं।#Raees (The BJP spokesperson Kailash Vijayvargiya has proved that BJP leaders like him are not efficient to do politics.)"
