“Bajrang Dal workers got to know that posters of Pathaan movie were put up in the theatre. So, it was a ‘pradarshan (protest)’ as they did not want the movie to be released in the theatre, and police detained them,” spokesperson of Gujarat Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) Hitendrasinh Rajput was quoted as saying by Indian Express.
Jhoome Jo Pathaan' is the second song from the upcoming Bollywood movie 'Pathaan'.
'Pathaan', directed by Siddharth Anand, is a part of Aditya Chopra’s ambitious spy universe and the movie also stars John Abraham.
