Washington, Aug 26 (ANI): Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has blasted prudish fans who refuse to see his nude scene in the play 'Equus' and brand the production "pornography".

The teen actor was required to disrobe on stage when he starred in the dramatic play Equus in London's West End last year (07) - a role he'll soon reprise on Broadway.

And the star is shocked by the reaction of older female fans, insisting his nude scene is no big deal.

"Offended mothers were calling in and saying I shouldn't be doing this, that they weren't going to see it," Contactmusic quoted him, as saying.

"OK, don't see it. They're treating it like it's pornography and it's not.

"It's only seven minutes at the end of the play when I'm naked and I'm 19 now," he added. (ANI)
