In one of the sequences in the movie, Mohanlal kicks a police officer in his khaki uniform played by John Vijay, and the team had used this scene in one of the posters, and now Kerala police association has sent a petition to Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and demanded a ban on this poster. They have said that there are attacks on Kerala police these days and such posters will encourage violence against police and people will lose fear on cops. They also demanded that just like smoking and drinking statutory warnings, films must also have a disclaimer reading that attacking cops is unlawful.
