Ramdas Athawale, the Unionminister of state for social justice and empowerment, Sunday said his party has no issues with the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Pathaan except for the use of the phrase, ‘Besharam Rang’, in a song of the movie.
Speaking to media in Pune, the chief of the Republican Party of India (Athawale) said: “We don’t have any problem with Pathan except that it uses the phrase, ‘Besharam Rang’, in a song for the saffron color. Saffron is not only the color of the BJP or the Shiv Sena, but it’s the color of the clothes that Gautam Buddha wore. About 2,500 years ago, it emerged as a colour of peace. Hence it is also an insult to Buddhism. If they don’t remove the word, besharam, our party will also agitate against the film. No color is besharam and such a reference should be removed.”
He further also critisized Rahul Gandhi led Bharat Jodo yatra and said, former Congress chief was spreading confusion among the people by claiming that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was weakening the Constitution.
“There’s no need to worry about the integrity of the Constitution. Narendra Modi is doing the work of strengthening the Constitution given by Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar. There’s no question of changing the Constitution because those who will try to do that can’t stay in power,” the minister said.
