'Pathaan', starring Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, embroiled in controversy since the release of its first song, ‘Besharam Rang’, earlier this week.
Notably, a major row erupted after Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra criticised Deepika Padukone's costume in the song also frowned upon the colour of the attire of Padukone and lead actor Shah Rukh Khan.
Mishra said if certain scenes in the song are not "corrected", the government will consider what to do about the screening of the movie in Madhya Pradesh. He said the "green" and "saffron" colours of the attire of the actor (Khan) and the actress (Padukone) need to be "rectified" along with the lyrics of the song and also the title of the film, which will hit the screens next month.
