Breach of character and misrepresentation?

As stated in the video, the way the film portrays the character of women in Lalbagh-Paral is highly offensive. It is being alleged that Mahesh Manjrekar has hurt the sentiments of the locals by showing scenes that violate the character of our sisters, mothers and women in this movie.

Marathi man showed helplessness?

In one of the scenes in the film, an actor is shown picking up a vada pav lying on the road and eating it. Locals strongly object to this scene. The Marathi man of Lalbagh-Paral is hardworking, but he is not helpless. After the mills closed down, many women ran poli-bhaji centers, men set up vada pav carts, but there was never time to pick them up and eat them on the street. Manjrekar is accused of distorting reality to spice up the movie.

Marketed our questions to run the movie

Although the film is based on a play based on the Lalbagh-Paral issues, many of the things depicted in the film never happened, the person says. An angry person opines that the struggle of the mill workers has been marketed and our image tarnished only for commercial success.

Why didn’t you react then?
