NEW DELHI – Home minister of Indian state Narottam Mishra has warned porn star turned Bollywood actor Sunny Leone and music video singers to apologise and remove their song at the earliest or else face legal action.
Asking the Indian Canadian actor to apologise, the lawmaker from the second largest Indian state said the officials will take action against her and composer Saqib Toshi if the music video is not removed from video streaming platforms within three days. He also warned of an FIR against all concerned persons.
Amid the saffronization under the Hindu nationalist government, the Indian minister alleged some groups to continuously hurt Hindu sentiments.
He said there are temples for Radha, a Hindu goddess, we pray for her. Toshi can make songs concerning his religion, but such songs offend us. I will take legal advice and action will be taken against them if the video is not taken down, he warned.
Meanwhile, the Indian music label said the company will change the lyrics and the name of the song Madhuban Mein Radhika after officials alleged that the song of the track has hurt Hindus.
“In light of recent feedback and respecting the sentiments of our fellow countrymen, we will be changing the lyrics and name of the song ‘Madhuban…’. The new song will replace the old across all platforms over the next three days”, the clarification cited.
