Aaja Nachle faces controversy in UP 
By IndiaFM News Bureau, December 1, 2007 - 12:23 IST
It was something that was totally unexpected and uncalled for. Madhuri’s much awaited comeback film, Aaja Nachle has run into problems big time, so much so that the whole of Uttar Pradesh is up in arms against this film and is in no mood to see it. At the helm of things is none other than the Chief Minister of UP Mayawati, who has called for a ban on the film, Aaja Nachle in Uttar Pradesh. The reason of the ban is being cited as certain caste-demeaning remarks in the title track of the film.
Mayawati also has written a letter to the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh demanding a countrywide ban on the film, saying it has hurt the sentiments of Dalits. The protestors also added that since certain words in the title song are derogatory to a particular Scheduled Caste community, the producers could run the film if they remove the "objectionable" song.
Here is hoping that the controversy settles down fast and the cine goers are not deprived of the ‘Dhak-Dhak’ girl’s comeback Jalwa!
