There is a new controversy surrounding the upcoming Malayalam movie “Oru Adaar Love”. Many FIRs are filed against the song titled “Manikya Malaraya Poovi”, in response of which the actress of the movie, Priya Prakash Varrier along with the director of the film, Omar Abdul Vahab had moved to the Supreme Court praying to quash all the criminal cases filed against them.
The FIRs are contending that the song of movie is hurting the religious sentiments of Muslim section of the society. In response the petitioner said through their advocate Haris Beeran and Pallavi Pratap that it is just a mapila song, or traditional Muslim song from Malabar region of Kerala praising the prophet and his wife Beevi Khadija.
They have also sought direction to prohibit the states not to initiate or register any criminal proceedings against them on the same issue of the lyrics of song as that is due to wrong interpretation of the song. And how can a song which is being in existence from the last 40 years and is cherished by the Muslim community can hurt their sentiments suddenly.
The promotional video of the song was released on 09 February, 2018 and it got 34 million views in just 10 days. The first FIR was lodged on 14 February in Telangana.
