The release of ‘ Phule ’ and ‘ Dhadak 2 ’ has been delayed due to the CBFC and filmmaker Anurag Kashyap wrote something on Instagram which was mostly a dig, a jibe. Kashyap wrote- ‘ Bhai India mein caste to exist hi nahin karti. Dhadak 2 mein bhi yahi bolta tha.
Hamare leaders ne India mein caste system khatam kar diya hai .’ Pratik Gandhi and Patralekhaa’s film Phule was all set for a theatrical release on April 11 but now the release has been postponed. Anand Dave, Brahmin Federation President, saw the trailer and alleged it promotes casteism.
The former state minister Chhagan Bhujbal had a meeting with director Anant Mahadevan and the producers to discuss the matter further. The film is based on the life of Mahatma Phule. Mahadevan said, ‘Cinematic liberty is taken in every film, each director takes only as much of the fact is shown in the film.
’ ‘This is a Hindi film based on the life of Mahatma Phule. It seems that the director and the rest of the group have put in a lot of hard work, hence this film should be seen by all, Mahatma is a great work, not only in the country but it should reach all over the world,’ former minister Chhagan Bhujbal said. Talking to News18, Mahadevan said, “We don’t get into a film with these kinds of doubts and fears in mind.
When you’re talking about a fearless couple like Jyotiba and Savitribai, if you’re going to harbour those kinds of fear, then you don’t deserve to make the film.”.
