Sambhal,

22 Feb (HS): The chief of a Hindu right-wing organization has vowed to invade

artists' homes in Mumbai and teach them a lesson over films that criticize

Sanatan Dharma. Raj

Shekhawat, national chief of the Kshatriya Karni Sena, expressed strong

opposition to the upcoming films Yadav Ji Ki Love Story and

Ghooskhor Pandat while addressing to media after giving prayers at

the Chamunda temple in Hallu Sarai.

Shekhawat

believes the time has come to enter the houses of producers and directors who

make films on our deities and culture and teach them a lesson. He asserted

that, after assaulting the Kshatriya and Brahmin groups, filmmakers are now

insulting the Yadav community through cinema, using freedom of speech as a

pretext to create content that misleads young and offends religious feelings.

I'm

telling Karni Sena workers to be ready. We will soon travel to Mumbai and take

action against such filmmakers in their homes, Shekhawat said. Regarding the

issue surrounding Yadav Ji Ki Love Story, which is set to be

released on February 27, Shekhawat stated that the whole community has already

protested. Some members of the Yadav community have expressed concern over the

nature of the love connection between a Yadav woman and a Muslim guy, claiming

that it might disrupt social harmony and hurt communal emotions.

Some

BJP officials have also called for a ban on the film's distribution. There was

no response from the filmmakers to the charges. On March 8, the Karni Sena head

called a mega-movement in Delhi to protest the new UGC equity norms.
