I think followers of a religion should decide

If a Christian is okay with Jesus on underwear then it does not mean other religions will be okay with their figures on underwear. So stop expecting that

If a Hindu is tolerant to make fun of their Gods then he or she should not expect that others will do the same

if a Muslim has a certain view when it comes to modesty then it does not mean other should follow that as well

Problem occurs when one tries to expand into others. To me the answer to this will depend upon what kind of religion we are talking about. today Hindus are fine but tomorrow if they decide that no we should not be shown in movies like this then movies should stop showing them like that

Stop thinking about others

Stop judging others

Stop wanting others to be like you

Stop it

Stop

Religious shows in India are one-dimensional.
We've got plenty of Ramayana, Mahabharata, Vishnu Purana, Shiv Purana, Hanuman shows and even shows/movies on less known characters like Ghatotkatch or Barbarik.
Have different versions of Buddha
But none on Islam, Christianity ( Last show on Jesus I remember was made 16 years ago.) Though there're lot of foreign Jesus story shows from West.
I am sure there must be some stories, some folktales in each religion. But in India we've different versions and reboots of Hindu mythology.

I would like to know Islam based shows since I've literally heard none coz I am not aware of them. Maybe they're made on Islamic countries?

I don't think Islam's history is portrayed anywhere in the world.
