Mumbai: Singer-rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh believes the controversy around the track “Besharam Rang” from upcoming Shah Rukh Khan-starrer “Pathaan” suggests that audiences have become way too “sensitive”.
“Pathaan” has been receiving backlash for showing lead star Deepika Padukone in a saffron bikini alongside Khan in “Besharam Rang”. Protests had been staged in diverse components of the country alleging a community had been offended via the tune’s content.
Those who have demanded a ban on the film encompass Madhya Pradesh minister Narrottam Mishra and Vishva Hindu Parishad spokesperson Vinod Bansal. The Madhya Pradesh Ulema Board has also sought a ban on the movie for “misrepresenting Islam”.
