Controversy
Chapekar Brothers received a diktat from the Censor Board over a film scene. The Censor Board had raised issues during the screening of the film over a scene in which one of the Chapekar Brothers had killed a Christian Missionary[4] forcing Hindus to convert into Christianity during the British Raj. The filmmakers objected to this diktat by showing references of a Marathi film ’22 June 1897’ released in the year 1979 depicting the same scene.[5] Post that incident, MNS President Raj Thackeray has pledged his full support to the movie and slammed the Censor Board.[6]
