Kangana Ranaut and Onir slam the song
In an interaction with ANI, Kangana blamed Bollywood for the Kannada film’s song. She said, “Bollywood has crossed all limits with vulgarity, tactics, and attention-seeking. The entire country is condemning and reprimanding them. But I don’t think they have any shame…There needs to be even more strictness about the display of such vulgarity and obscenity. It is difficult to even watch TV with family. I think some strict rein will have to be put on Bollywood.”
Onir also reacted to the controversy and blamed the CBFC for clearing the song. He wrote, “And the Censor board is busy with The naming of a film #GhooskhorPandat . Strange country we are becoming… opposing Valentines day celebration, interfaith marriage/ celebration while ok with this rubbish.”
