Cinema hall management filed a complaint against protestors at the New Agra police station. SP city Sameer Saurabh said action would be taken.

Madan Sharma of the Bajrang Dal and Rajendra Garg of the VHP criticised Aamir Khan saying that he was displaying his anti Hindu sentiments by ridiculing Hindu gods and goddesses in the film.
