The recently released song “Besharam Rang” from the upcoming film “Pathan,” starring Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, is making rounds on social media.’
The song garnered a lot of praise, the hashtag #BoycottPathaan also started trending on social media.
The song is being criticised for allegedly hurting Hinduism by disrespecting the colours associated with it. Many extremists are claiming that the colours of the bikni Deepika is wearing in the video are disrespectful to Hinduism.
Indian right-wing activist Dr Prachi Sadhvi in a tweet wrote, “Ban This Movie in India.”
The Home Minister of Madhya Pardesh, Narottam Mishra, has asked for the makers of Pathaan to change the visuals and the costumes of the song, calling them objectionable.
“The outfits that have been worn in the song are objectionable. It is evident that polluted minds are behind filming this song. Anyway, Deepika Padukone has been a supporter of the Tukde Tukde gang when she went for the JNU protests and that is why, I would like to request that they should correct the visuals of the song, correct the costumes, or else the permission to release this film in MP should be given or not will be a thinkable question,” he said.
