The user further said, ‘In the trailer of Ritesh Deshmukh’s film, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is shown openly showing his nails to Afzal Khan before the attack. It is a historical fact that ‘Wagh Nakh’ was hidden and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj used it only after Afzal’s attack.Expressing strong disapproval, the post read, “Why is @RITEISHD tampering and insulting the history, heritage and pride of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Maharashtra???”Ritesh Deshmukh’s reactionAddressing the criticism, Riteish replied politely and urged the audience to watch ‘Raja Shivaji’ before drawing conclusions. He wrote, “Respected Sir, please watch the film on 1st May.. The answer to your question is in the film. I hope you enjoy the film with your friends and family. Jai Shivarai.”The conversation didn’t end there, as the user responded, “So the truth is ‘within the film’? ‘Watch the film for answers’ is fine for imagination, not for history. When depicting Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, the trailer itself should answer the questions, not raise them.” “Interesting strategy: market doubt, sales clarification.”Meanwhile, many users came to Ritesh’s defence. One commented, “I think this scene is after Afzal was stabbed.” Another wrote, “It’s a film take it as a film, if you like it then go and watch it, if you don’t like it then don’t go. It’s simple. We have bodies like CBFC etc to look after it.” The third one said, “First look brother…he must have done so much research.”More information about ‘Raja Shivaji’‘Raja Shivaji’ is produced by Genelia D’Souza and Jyoti Deshpande and stars Sanjay Dutt, Abhishek Bachchan, Mahesh Manjrekar, Sachin Khedekar, Bhagyashree, Fardeen Khan, Jitendra Joshi, Amol Gupte and Genelia.
