However, now after 70 cuts, the film will be released. The censor board has also removed a song on Shiv Tandav and PM Narendra Modi Ji speech from the film. Producer Shankar Naidu, who is grieved by this tyrannical act by the censor team said, “We have not received any support from the censor board . Shiv Tandav is a song that signifies triumph of Good over evil and Hinduism , was cut by the Censor board without any consideration despite our appeal. Is it an act to subvert Hindus as if we have no right to canvass positive themes of our epics? They have allowed many movies with scenes demeaning, insulting and degrading Hindu Gods and Hindu spirits.
