Asha Parekh REACTS to trolls calling for a ban on Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan over Deepika Padukone’s saffron bikini in ‘Besharam Rang’ song – Times of India

Speaking about the same in an interview with a TV channel, Asha said that the primary motive of a film is to provide entertainment and that it has nothing to do with what the actress is wearing. According to her, Bollywood is dying as films are not doing that well. The situation is already very bad, and on top of that, these boycott and ban trends, cause damage. The industry itself will end. She also expressed her concerns about people no longer going to the theatre to watch a movie. “If films keep flopping, how will another film be made?”, Parekh asked in an interview with Aaj Tak.

She went on to say that there was no commotion about the bikini during their time, but now questions are being raised about the orange-colored bikini. According to the veteran actress, the brains of people are shutting down now. People are becoming very narrow minded, which is wrong. She also added that Bollywood has always been a soft target.

‘Pathaan’ also stars John Abraham in the lead role. It is slated to hit theatres in January 2023.
