In an upcoming art show
at Buenos Aires, Argentina, Barbie doll is being depicted as Goddess Kali of
Hinduism. News report that Hindus are upset with this and they have called this
inappropriate.
Rajan Zed, Hindu
statesman and President of the Universal Society of Hinduism urged the artists
to not include Barbie-ised Goddess Kali in the exhibition and remove it from
their online postings and printed material as it trivialised the highly revered
deity of Hinduism.
Zed further said that
Hindus welcomed art world to immerse in Hinduism but taking it seriously and
respectfully and not for refashioning Hinduism concepts and symbols for
personal agendas. Barbie-fication of Kali was simply improper, wrong and out of
place.
