Bhooth Bangla was released on Netflix a few days ago and attracted attention from viewers who were excited to see several familiar faces. The film brought together Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, and Rajpal Yadav once again. Many viewers also appreciated its mix of comedy and horror elements.
However, a particular scene from the film has now become the subject of discussion on social media. Several users have highlighted the sequence and questioned its inclusion. The scene has generated criticism from a section of the audience.
In the sequence, Rajpal Yadav’s character is shown looking towards a maid while she is carrying out her work. Akshay Kumar’s character notices this and calls him out for allegedly behaving inappropriately. At first glance, the scene appears to be part of the film’s comedy track.
The controversy arises because an idol of Lord Shri Krishna is visible near the location where the scene takes place. Critics argue that the visual context of the sequence makes it sensitive. This has led to questions from viewers about the filmmakers’ creative choices.
Some social media users have expressed concern that the scene could hurt Hindu sentiments. They have questioned how such a sequence was filmed and included in a movie marketed as a family entertainer. The discussion has continued across various online platforms.
Another point raised by critics is the role of the censor board in approving the scene. Some viewers believe the sequence was unnecessary and did not fit the family-friendly image associated with the film. These concerns have intensified the online debate.
As a result, many netizens have criticised the makers, actors, and the censor board. Some users directly tagged Akshay Kumar while expressing their objections. Others shared similar opinions and continued to discuss the scene extensively online.
OTT platforms have expanded opportunities for film releases and have enabled wider access to content. At the same time, debates about creative freedom and audience sensitivities continue to emerge. The discussion surrounding Bhooth Bangla reflects these ongoing concerns.
