This did not go well with the Sikh community as they thought that the makers of the film have mocked the religious symbol of the Kirpan. Manjinder Singh Sirsa, The Gurdwara Management Committee’s general secretary has even written a letter to Pahlaj Nihalani, asking them to remove the song from YouTube. Not only that, they have also demanded an apology from the makers and producers of the film.
