'Pathaan' Controversy : Bajrang Dal, VHP Want 'Besharam Rang' To Be Removed

Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra and the Vishwa Hindu Parishad demanded a change in the song. The Madhya Pradesh Ulema Board also sought a ban on the film for 바카라misrepresenting Islam바카라.

Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer 'Pathaan' is ready for release but seems controversy is not leaving the film as the posters of the film being vandalized in an Ahmedabad mall and members of the VHP and Bajrang Dal saying they would not allow its screening in Gujarat unless their problems over its song 바카라Besharam Rang바카라 are resolved.

Several videos circulating on social media showed VHP and Bajrang Dal members shouting slogans, tearing the film바카라s poster, and stomping on large cutouts of Pathaan, which also features Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, on Wednesday. While debate raged, team 'Pathaan' found support in filmmaker Rahul Dholakia and some others who condemned the vandalism.

Many are objecting Deepika Padukone's look in the song including the one in a saffron bikini. 

바카라We want the makers of 바카라Pathaan바카라 to remove the words 바카라besharam rang바카라 from the song and also scenes where the actress is seen in a saffron dress in the song. We will not allow Pathaan바카라s screening in Gujarat if these two changes are not made. Though we are also against the movie바카라s title, because it propagates love jihad, our main demand at present is about that song,바카라 Bajrang Dal바카라s north Gujarat president Jwalit Mehta said Gujarat VHP spokesperson Hitendrasinh Rajput added that 바카라Besharam Rang바카라 should ideally be dropped from the movie, reports Indian Expres.

While most people in the industry have not spoken on the controversy, Dholakia, who directed SRK in Raees, described the protest as 바카라vandalism and hooliganism바카라.

He put out a tweet alongside a video of the protest.

Soon after the release of 바카라Besharam Rang바카라, Dholakia said the hate attack that had been going on for years against Shah Rukh should 바카라be condemned by one and all in the film industry바카라.

바카라SRK has contributed more to our fraternity and India as an ambassador of entertainment & cinema; than most people have. Please tell these bigots with idiotic theories to Shut Up,바카라 Dholakia tweeted.

Previously, CBFC chairperson Prasoon Joshi said the committee has guided the makers to implement the advised changes in the film 바카라including the songs and submit the revised version prior to theatrical release바카라.
