The Shia leader pointed out that in a scene in the movie, Shah Rukh Khan jumped over a Muharram procession which was carrying “Alame Mubarak”. Shia community considers this as desecration to their religious beliefs.

According to the news published in India Today, another Shia leader, Kamran Haider of Okhla said, “We cannot tolerate anyone disrespecting our holy master, a master who not only sacrificed his life, but also led a miserable life with his family to keep Islam alive. Shah Rukh Khan and the director should know that his family was very underprivileged”.
