Meanwhile, the film is also facing boycott calls over an old statement of Ranbir Kapoor. A video from the year 2012 that has been doing rounds on social media, show Ranbir saying, “I am a big beef guy”. Clearly, the video has not gone down well with a section of the people, which has led to these calls. Following this, black flags were also shown by Bajrang Dal members to the actors on Tuesday when they arrived at Mahakal Temple in Ujjain to seek Lord Mahakal’s blessings, ahead of the film’s release.
