How is Pathaan creating headlines?

Outrage over Deepika Padukone's Bhagwa or Saffron Bikini has been among the most unexpected and shocking. Several individuals have undoubtedly viewed Besharam Rang. She appears in the final scene wearing a tangerine bikini and sarong. Radicals have complained that it is offensive because saffron, or Bhagwa, is the color of Hinduism and is used in a seductive song. As a result of the escalating situation, several ministers are requesting a ban.

Prakash Raj, however, has spoken out in favor of Deepika Padukone.

The radicalization of entertainers has drawn criticism from a Kannada actor, who called the outcry despicable. He is receiving abuse for it, but he responded by claiming that those who discovered the bikini in Bhagwa were colorblind. Burnt orange is the official color of Deepika Padukone's skin.

Shah Rukh Khan also encountered a tonne of trolls in 2021.

Only occasionally will the celebrities promote Pathaan. Salman Khan makes a cameo appearance in the movie. John Abraham plays the film's main antagonist.
