Salman Khan's team has responded to the allegations that 'The Great Indian Kapil Show' on Netflix has made statements about Rabindranath Tagore, resulting in the actor receiving a legal letter.

The Great Indian Kapil comedy, a Netflix comedy hosted by Kapil Sharma, faces legal action amid charges that it disrespects Rabindranath Tagore's legacy. According to reports, Salman Khan's production company, SKTV, has also received a legal warning due to its suspected involvement in the show. However, Salman Khan's team has denied these allegations, publishing a statement clarifying their non-involvement.

The Bongo Bhashi Mahasabha Foundation issued the notification. It was sent on Dr. Mondal's behalf and represented by Nripendra Krishna Roy, a legal advisor. The letter states that The Great Indian Kapil Show denigrates Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore's legacy and may violate cultural and religious sensibilities.
