Many people on social media feel that the main purpose of this movie seems to be nothing more than digging out old corpses to create fresh controversy. The 1998 case remains one of the most talked-about events in Indian entertainment history, making this picture highly sensitive. However, a section of people also think that the film might be funded by Salman’s own PR team. The theory is that they are building an initial narrative that the film is exposing him, but in reality, it will end up whitewashing his case.
