You know, when I first heard the song ‘Besharam Rang’ from the highly-anticipated film Pathaan starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham, I liked the vibe of the song because it sounds like a modern ghazal. However, I got over it as quickly as possible. But looks like the song has created new trouble for the film. Many people are calling ‘Besharam Rang’ objectionable and a case has been filed at the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting calling for a ban on the song.
On Thursday, a Supreme Court Advocate filed a complaint at the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting against SRK and Deepika Padukone. In his complaint, the lawyer mentioned that the song is vulgar, obscene, and hurts Hindu sentiments. He added that the Gehraiyaan actress was wearing a saffron bikini and sarong while dancing to the song with Shah Rukh Khan. The advocate urged the I&B Ministry to ban the music video and called for its removal from the internet as soon as possible.
According to the reports, the complaint further mentioned that Bollywood is turning the colour saffron into a symbol of shamelessness by insulting the colour of pride and devotion by performing obscene moves in the song. It alleged that the colour saffron has been used intentionally to insult the Hindu community and Sanatan culture.

Earlier, the Home Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Narottam Mishra also took objection to the song and mentioned that the bikini worn by Deepika Padukone is highly objectionable. Furthermore, he added that if some scenes from the music video are not corrected, the state government might ban its screening.
For the unversed, ‘Besharam Rang’ is sung by Shilpa Rao, Caralisa Monteiro, Vishal, and Sheykhar. The music video is filmed in Spain.
