Upcoming movies and shows attracting controversy has become a common thing in today's time. No matter how noble the vision of a filmmaker is, there is always a group of people who would take offense for really small reasons. Akshay Kumar's upcoming historical drama 'Prithviraj' is facing backlash by Karni Sena for a really bizzare and outlandish reason. Surjeet Singh Rathore, President of youth wing of Karni Sena expressed his views against the titled of the film.
He said, How can they keep the title of the film as just ‘Prithviraj’ when the film is based on the great Prithviraj Chauhan? We want the title to be changed to his full name and give respect to him.”
The youngster also threatened the filmmakers while demanding that the film should be screened for them before a theatrical release. He said, “If they don’t listen to our advice they will have to face the consequences. What happened to Sanjay Leela Bhansali during ‘Padmaavat’, the makers of this film will have to be prepared for it, too.”
Karni Sena also came in limelight when they protested against Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh starrer film 'Padmavat'.
