A certain god-man in India has left behind all the Bollywood releases this week and threatens to do so for several weeks. A typical movie made in Bollywood has certain elements we call masala, necessary for keeping different members of the audience happy. The way this man is going, he may become a one-man entertainment industry himself.
What are the masala elements a typical film has?
Dance and music- watch your neighbourhood channel for this guy doing a raas leela (thankfully, by himself) and a tandav. Just like the extras in films, there are a few hundred devotees also joining in.
Chase- There are two here. One for his own arrest, and another is on as we speak, for that of his son.
Drama- There was some before the arrest, in terms of feigning illness, then disappearing from one place and emerging in another.
Dialogue- "Prison is like Vaikunth for me", "No prison can keep me for long"- a la Gabbar Singh.
Sex- well, that started it all, with charges of misconduct.
TRPs of some channels must be skyrocketing.

I am not sure what drivel you have posted but - 'Lying for Sex' can have at least two meanings.
