Thackeray, Nawazuddin Siddiqui's upcoming biopic film on late Shiv Sena leader Bal Thackeray had a trailer release recently and pointing out certain dialogues in it, actor Siddharth has taken to twitter to express some strong opinions.

The conveniently un-subtitled #Marathi trailer of #Thackeray. So much hate sold with such romance and heroism (Music, tiger roars, applause, jingoism). No solidarity shown to millions of South Indians and immigrants who make #Mumbai great. #HappyElections! https://t.co/F13jMcIRle

Nawazuddin has repeated 'Uthao lungi bajao pungi' (lift the lungi and *'#$ him) in the film #Thackeray. Clearly hate speech against South Indians... In a film glorifying the person who said it! Are you planning to make money out of this propaganda? Stop selling hate! Scary stuff!

Poetic justice is when a Muslim actor from UP gets to play the part of the revered Marathi bigot in a propaganda film.

“We have projected Balasaheb exactly the way he lived his life, the way he expressed his opinions on his people and political situations. We did not fictionalize anything..Nobody can ban the film...Balasaheb banned many people during his time. Did you people forget that? How could CBFC decide what is right or wrong on Saheb’s life? Only family members know that.."
