Webdesk: Pathaan director Siddharth Anand reveals for the first time that the film was threatened with a boycott before to its theatrical premiere.
Anand admits that the Pathaan team not frightened by the boycott calls, nor the film affected by them.
” Not frightened at all. We were aware that our picture included no offensive content.”
“When we were in Spain, I randomly chose that costume. We never gave it much consideration. The hue was looking good. It was sunny, the grass was greener, the lake was blue, and the orange hue was attractive. We believed that when the public viewed it, they would recognise that our aim was not improper “, the director continued.
Prior to the release of Pathaan, the majority of individuals demanded that it be banned on the grounds that it contains offensive material that offends the Hindu community. Deepika Padukone drew significant criticism for the orange saffron she wore in the song Besharam Rang.
The action-packed picture starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika, and John Abraham swept the box office by storm. The film grossed over 1 billion Rupees worldwide.
According to Indiatoday, filmmaker Siddharth Anand is presently filming his next film, Fighter, starring Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone.
