“People don’t have enough to eat…”, Ratna Pathak on Deepika Padukone’s Besharam Rang controversy

Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone‘s first song of the film Pathaan Beshram Rang face huge criticism. Besharam is a dance number romancing each other in exotic locales in Europe. However, they are facing huge criticism because of the color of Deepika’s Dress.  Ratna Pathak who is very active on different issues and frequently shares her opinion has slams the criticism on Deepika’s Dress.

Reacting to the criticism on Pathaan and Deepika Dress, the actress said, “I would say we are living in very silly times, if these are the things that are on top of your mind. It isn’t something that I would like to talk about very much or give much credence to.” The actress also says that in India people don’t have enough food to eat and they are talking about Deepika’s dress.

She further added, “We haven’t produced any stuff that deserves any kind of accolades. A lot of stuff we produce is pretty horrifying or at best mediocre. The effort that goes into making a film is enormous and all this easy branding of films and film people as this or that is such a pity. What a waste of time. Don’t we have other things to think about? Look at our country, the pandemic has wiped-out small-scale manufacturing in our country, people don’t have enough to eat, and we are fussing over who is wearing what clothes?”

Earlier MP’s Minister Narrotam Mishra said, “I feel the title of the song 'Besharam Rang' is also objectionable in its sense. The song is made with a contaminated mentality, the actor and the actress are clad in green and saffron clothes in an objectionable manner.” The Leader of Opposition in Madhya Pradesh Assembly Govind Singh has also expressed his anger on the costumes in the song. "The scenes of the song and costumes are highly objectionable. Such things are not acceptable in Indian culture." 

Pathaan, marks Shah Rukh Khan’s return to the big screen in over four years. The action thriller also stars John Abraham and is directed by Siddharth Aanand. The film is scheduled to be released in theatres on January 25, 2023. It will be released in Tamil and Telugu dubbed versions apart from Hindi. Shah Rukh Khan also has Jawaan and Dunki in the pipeline.
