Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday cautioned BJP leaders from making unnecessary remarks against films and personalities to grab headlines. During the BJP National Executive meeting in New Delhi, PM Modi said, “No one should make unnecessary comments that would overshadow the hard work we do.”
A BJP office bearer, who was present at the meeting, said, “In his speech yesterday, the prime minister cautioned those who make statements to grab headlines. He told them that they should refrain from doing so.”
The prime minister’s remarks come amid the boycott call against Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone’s upcoming movie Pathaan by a few senior BJP leaders, including Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narrotam Mishra and Bhopal MP Pragya Thakur.
Mishra had objected to the colour of Deepika Padukone’s costume in the film’s song, Besharam Rang, calling for its “rectification”.

A right-wing organisation based in Chandigarh has also urged the local administration to ban the screening of Pathaan and has sought criminal action against its makers over Besharam Rang.
Meanwhile, Prasoon Joshi, Chairperson, Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), said in a statement recently the makers of Pathaan have been asked to implement “advised changes…including the songs and submit the revised version”.
Last year, members of a Hindu outfit had staged a protest against Aamir Khan-starrer Laal Singh Chaddha, demanding a ban on it in Uttar Pradesh as they accused the actor of making fun of deities.
