The makers of Dabangg 3 have voluntarily removed "certain scenes" from the title track Hud hud Dabangg. A tweet from the official Twitter handle of Salman Khan Films read, "Keeping everyone's sentiment in mind we have voluntarily edited certain scenes from the song 'Hud Hud Dabangg'."
Dabangg 3 landed in controversy when a Hindu outfit and sections of social media objected to a sequence in the title song Hud hud Dabangg that shows saffron-clad sadhus dancing with guitars. The outfit, Hindu Janajagruti Samiti, also sent a letter to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) demanding the censor certificate of the film be cancelled, even as #BoycottDabangg3 had trended on social media.
#HudHudDabangg pehle sunaya, aaj dikha bhi raha hun. Yakeen hai ke swagat karoge aap.https://t.co/cAy3Q5g5es@arbaazSkhan @sonakshisinha @saieemmanjrekar @PDdancing @nikhil_dwivedi @SajidMusicKhan @wajidkhan7 @ShababSabri @adityadevmusic @shabinaakhan @SKFilmsOfficial @TSeries
