The controversy surrounding Gana singer Isaivani does not seem to be dying down – no action taken against her for hurting Hindu sentiments despite multiple complaints by devotees of Lord Ayyappa and Hindus alike. Now, Behindwoods, a channel focused on cinema, seems to want to ride on the trend and has shared a video on their Facebook page that will hurt the sentiments of Ayyappa devotees even further.

The video is originally from 2022 from what looks like an event involving Kollywood celebrities.
It was reshared on 21 November 2024 amidst the “I am sorry Ayyappa” controversy.
The lyrics of what they are calling the “Beef song” seem to be targeted at Hindus and mocking vegetarians for eating only vegetarian/plant-based diet. The lyrics are as follows:
“… add salt and spice and drink the soup
Emotions like anger, honour,
when you eat the “big meat” you get power
If you eat other vegetables, you get sugar (diabetes)
What did we get by eating other food
Our beef curry is always powerful
When we go to the shop to buy, it is housefull
You can roast it in oil and get fried beef
you can relish it”
The lyrics then praise Vada Chennai or North Chennai. The members of the team sing a rap about the place and its people.
This seems to be an attempt to mock Ayyappa devotees who have taken up the vow of abstinence in the Tamil month of Karthigai during which Ayyappa devotees visit Sabarimala for their annual pilgrimage.
