SRK's movie Raees has
been in news ever since MNS had threatened the Pakistani artists to leave the
country because of the Uri Attacks. Shahrukh invited more trouble
after he went to Dubai to shoot with Mahira Khan. Subsequent that,
the 51-year-old actor had to meet Raj Thackeray and promise that
Mahira won't be endorsing the movie.
But it doesn't finish here! Shia community is now offended
by a particular scene in the movie. The representatives of the community have
written a letter to the Censor Board of Film Certification (CBFC) demanding the
exclusion of the scene in which the actor is seen jumping over a Muharram
procession carrying Alame Mubarak. As per the community, it's a sign of disregard.
Spokesperson of United Shia Front, Samar Abbas Jaidi told,
“The actor is shown crossing over an Alam (a Shia religious structure) in a
chase sequence. It is strictly prohibited for anyone to cross over the holy
structure. We will boycott the movie in the district if the movie is released
without removing the scene.”
Powerful Shia cleric from Lucknow, Maulana Syed Kalbe Jawad
Naqvi, revealed a top UK daily, "I never watch movies, but when I saw this
particular stunt in the movie's trailer, I was shocked. This is wrong. Mr. Khan
should know that such religious rituals are followed by Shias to commemorate
the martyrdom of Imam Hussain."
