He made the observation while addressing the last day of the two-day National Executive meet here on Tuesday.

During his address, Prime Minister Narendra Modi also asked BJP members to reach out to every section of society, including minorities such as Bohras, Pasmandas and Sikhs, and work for them without electoral considerations.

The Prime Minister’s statement comes amid the recent protests against Shah Rukh Khan’s film Pathaan, with several BJP leaders like Ram Kadam and Narottam Mishra criticising the makers over Deepika Padukone’s saffron costume in the song Besharam Rang.

The song has been in news for a saffron-coloured bikini worn by Deepika along with a few shots that several politicians and trolls found ‘vulgar’.

As per reports, Hindu sentiments have been hurt and people have also criticised the makers as they find an “overdose” of the s*xually appealing look of the actress.

Protests are on with the social media campaign seeking boycott of the movie.
