Ayodhya: A video of Ayodhya is going viral on social media. People got angry when a girl made a reel by doing a bold dance on a film song while bathing in the Saryu river at Ram ki Paidi in Dharmanagari Ayodhya. People showered scathing comments on the viral girl’s video on social media demanding strict action from the police. Taking cognizance of the matter, Ayodhya police has started investigation. The search is on for the girl. Let us tell you that last year too there was a ruckus at Ram ki Paidi in Ayodhya when a husband kissed his wife while she was taking a bath. On this, a group of youths had beaten up the husband by accusing him of obscenity. At that time considering Ram ki Paidi as a water park was so heavy on that new couple that perhaps they would not be able to forget it for life.
Along with this, it is being requested that there should be a ban on making reels at such places.

Raipur. The ruckus created over Bollywood film Adipurush is not taking its name to stop. The heat of this uproar has reached Mata Sita’s maternal home i.e. Mathilanchal, through Nepal to Mata Kaushalya’s maternal home i.e. Chhattisgarh and there is a demand to ban the film. Please tell that CM Bhupesh Baghel himself has called this film levelless and has demanded a ban. At the same time, now Union Minister Renuka Singh has also told to ban this Adipurush. At the same time, while retweeting CM Bhupesh Baghel’s tweet, Union Minister Renuka Singh has said that Lord Shri Ram has been made fun of in this film. The film should be banned.
Earlier, CM Bhupesh Baghel had written by tweeting that I had read and heard about ‘Adipurush’. Extremely pained that how the censor board finally gave certificate to a film which is playing with our faith, making fun of our idol. The central government will have to answer this. We will not tolerate the insult of our nephew Ram, the responsible people should apologise.
Raipur. There has been an uproar across the country regarding the film Adipurush. Controversy is also going on in Chhattisgarh regarding this. Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel has given a big statement regarding banning this film. CM Baghel said that if there is a demand from the public, then the issue of banning Adipurush in Chhattisgarh will be considered.
Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel said that earlier Bollywood was not controlled, but today efforts are being made to control everyone. The director and writer are working at the behest of Delhi. Why is the BJP leader who spoke on Kashmir files and Kerala story silent. The CMA said that if there is a demand from the public, then it will be considered to ban Adipurush in Chhattisgarh. Please tell that Prabhas, Kriti Sanon and Saif Ali Khan starrer film Adipurush has been released in theaters on June 16. As soon as the film was released, there was an uproar across the country.
New Delhi. Adipurush film has been released across the country today. With the release of the film, its protest has also started. This film is being opposed by the Hindu army. He says that Lord Shriram has been made fun of in the film. Therefore, a demand has been made to ban the film by filing a public interest litigation in the Delhi High Court. National President of Hindu Sena Vishnu Gupta wants the High Court to order the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) not to give certificate to this film.
It was said in the PIL that this film does not match the way Lord Shri Ram is shown in the Ramayana written by Maharishi Valmiki and Saint Tulsidas. Therefore, religious sentiments have been hurt by this film. It was said in the petition that the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting was also contacted in the present matter, but they did not show interest in it. After which he had no other option but to file a PIL in the court. It was said in the petition that the character of Saif Ali Khan and Hanuman playing the role of Ravana in the film also does not seem to match with Indian civilization. Ravana was a Brahmin. The way the bearded fierce look has been given to Ravana, it is going to hurt the sentiments. This does not match at all with the real story of Ramayana.
