Wait for a few more days, and then Shah Rukh Khan’s film ‘Pathan’ will be seen on the big screen. Shahrukh Khan is returning to the silver screen after a long wait of four years. However, the problems of ‘Pathan’ are not taking the name of ending. It is being boycotted in different parts of the country. Meanwhile, there was a protest against the film in Patna.
Demonstration against Pathan in Patna
In front of Mona Cinema Hall located near Gandhi Maidan, Patna, Shri Ram Sena Sanghathan protested fiercely regarding the release of Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer film ‘Pathan’. The leaders of Shri Ram Sena said that obscenity has been shown in this film. He says that there is so much obscenity in one of the songs of the film that no person can watch this film with his family. Will Bollywood films now promote only obscenity and intoxicants in the country?
At the same time, he said that Shahrukh Khan did not say anything even once in the case of Sushant Singh Rajput. He says to himself that my father was from Pakistan, so why doesn’t he go to Pakistan. The protesters of Shri Ram Sena raised slogans of Jai Shri Ram in front of Mona Cinema Hall during the demonstration. Posters of the film Pathan were also burnt here and people were appealed not to watch this ‘obscene’ film.
Uproar outside the theater in Assam too
Even before this there have been demonstrations regarding ‘Pathan’. On Saturday, January 21, some people of Bajrang Dal raised slogans against the film outside theaters in Narengi, Assam. They also burnt the posters of the film ‘Pathan’. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma was asked about this in the press conference held on Saturday after the controversy. Then he didn’t say anything. However, later by tweeting, the CM told that he had spoken to Shahrukh Khan.
Shahrukh Khan talked to CM
Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma tweeted on Sunday that Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan had called him at 2 am. He writes, ‘Bollywood actor Mr. Shahrukh Khan called me and we talked late at 2 am. He expressed concern over an incident that took place in Guwahati during the screening of his film. I assured them that it is the duty of the state government to maintain law and order. We will inquire and ensure that no such incident happens.
Shah Rukh Khan and the makers have also faced controversies regarding the song Besharam Rang from the film ‘Pathan’. Deepika Padukone was seen wearing a saffron colored bikini in the song, after which outrage was seen on social media. This film made by director Siddharth Anand is releasing in theaters on January 25.
