Madhya Pradesh minister warns actor Sunny Leone, asks her to apologise 

Bhopal: Controversy and protests have started on Bollywood actress Sunny Leone’s song ‘Madhuban Mein Radhika Naache’.

According to the Indian media, Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra has warned Sunny Leone and asked her to apologize. He also said that Sunny Leone and Saqib Toshi should apologize in three days or else legal action will be taken. He said that insulting Hindu deities will not be tolerated.

Narottam Mishra had given Bollywood star Sunny Leone and music composer Saqib Toshi three days to take down a music video of the actor's "obscene" dance to a song - "madhuban mein Radhika naache" - from the 1960 film Kohinoor.

Mishra - who adds Leone to a growing list of brands and artistic content he deems objectionable and has threatened with legal action, including a jewellery collection by designer Sabyasachi - has claimed the video that accompanies the song hurts Hindu sentiments.

"Some people continuously hurt Hindu sentiments... there are temples for Radha... we pray to her. Saqib Toshi can make songs concerning his religion, but such songs offend us. I will take legal advice and action will be taken if the video is not taken down in three days," he said.

After the choas, music label Saregama said the company will "change" the lyrics and the name of the song "Madhuban" after Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra alleged that the video of the track has hurt the religious sentiments of Hindus.

"In light of the recent feedback & respecting the sentiments of our fellow countrymen, we will be changing the lyrics & the name of the song Madhuban. The new song will replace the old one across all platforms over the next 3 days," Saregama, which had released the aforementioned song on its YouTube channel on December 22, said in a brief statement.
