Hindu Maha sabha lashes out at Big Boss promo!!

MEERUT: After having been aired on TV for over a week - the Bigg Boss promo showing Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan in a Kaali mandir temple with their shoes on - drew flak from Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha on Sunday. The episode for which the promo has been going on air for over a week now has to be aired on Sunday and leaders of the party have demanded that the particular scene be removed from the episode before broadcasting it on TV. The leaders have also written a feedback to Colors - the reply of which is still awaited.

"I am shocked to see that a scene with Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan inside a Kaali temple with shoes on is being broadcasted on the national TV for such a long time but no one has taken any action against it. The thing is that now if we will say anything, we will be termed intolerant. But our religious sentiments have been hurt and before the final episode is broadcasted on Sunday, the scene should be completely removed," said Bharat Rajput, district president, Hindu Mahasabha.

The promo of Bigg Boss that is being broadcasted on national TV for over a week now is to promote SRK's special appearance on the show for December 19 and December 20. In the promo, both the actors are seen in a Kaali temple to recreate the scene from the movie 'Karan Arjun'. But incidentally, both of them have put their shoes on during the shot.

"If the actors were not that careful, at least the makers of the promo should have taken care that it is a religious set and should have not been tampered with. Our district president has also written to Colors on its feedback email id and asked them the reason behind such a blunder," said Ashok Sharma, national vice president, Hindu Mahasabha.

The email to Colors, reads, "Not only temple, people don't even go with their shoes on to other religious places like mosques and gurudwaras. This is insensible of all of you to have aired such content on your channel just for TRPs."
