‘PM Narendra Modi’: MNS General Secretary Shalini Thackeray threatens action if the film isn’t banned

Due to public demand, ‘PM Narendra Modi’ is now all set to release on 5th April 2019, just before the Lok Sabha Elections. Unfortunately for its makers, certain groups are trying to stall its release. Yes, MNS (Maharashtra Navnirman Sena)’s General Secretary Shalini Thackeray has openly opposed the film.

According to a report in Maharashtra Times, Thackeray said that BJP has arranged funds for the film to promote government’s schemes. She also demanded a ban on the film and said that MNS will retaliate in their style.

Earlier, the film had hit the headlines when renowned lyricist Javed Akhtar slammed the makers for using his name on the poster (he said he hadn’t written any songs for the film). Take a look at his tweet here:

As a clarification, producer Sandip Ssingh tweeted,

We have taken the songs ‘Ishwar Allah’ from the film ‘1947:Earth’ and the song ‘Suno Gaur Se Duniya Walon’ from the film ‘Dus’ in our film, thus we have given the due credits to respective lyricists Javed Sahab and Sameer Ji. @TSeries is our Music partner. @ModiTheFilm2019
