Yoga guru Ramdev's remark where he said women look "good" in any dress as well as wearing nothing has stirred a massive row.

Ramdev at a recent event said, "I see everyone looks very happy. May you have a happy fortune too. Those in front got a chance to wear sarees. Those at the back did not get a chance. They probably packed and brought sarees from home but did not have time to change."

"You (all) look beautiful in saree. You also look good in salwar suits, like Amruta ji. And like me, even if one doesn't wear anything, that also looks good," he added.

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' wife Amruta Fadnavis was sitting next to Ramdev at the event, which was also attended by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's son Shrikant Shinde.

"All women have been hurt by this statement, Baba Ramdev ji should apologize to the country for this statement!"

Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra tweeted, "Now I know why Patanjali baba ran away from Ramlila Maidan in women’s clothes. He says he likes sarees, salwars and ……

"Clearly got a strabismus in his brain that makes his views so lop-sided."
