Bollywood | Alia Bhatt's much awaited film Gangubai Kathiawadi is going to hit the theaters this week. A few days before its release, Alia Bhatt's film got stuck in legal trouble. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the film is based on the real-life character Gangubai, who once lived in Kamathipura, Mumbai. Recently, the family of Gangubai Kathiawadi also raised their voice regarding the story of this film. Now the people living in Kamathipura have also spoken out against it. People here say that the name of Kamathipura has been misrepresented in the film. Seeing the demand of the people, local MLA Amin Patel has filed a petition in the Bombay High Court in this matter. There has been a demand from his side that the name of Kamathipura in the film should be changed. Let us tell that now the hearing in this matter is to be held in the High Court on Wednesday.

people are complaining about this

In fact, the complaint of the people of Kamathipura is that efforts are being made to defame their area. Years ago this place of Mumbai was famous as Red Light Area. Later, the Kamathi workers started living with their families here. Ever since the trailer of Alia Bhatt's film Gangubai Kathiawadi has come out, the name of Kamathipura has once again come into the limelight and people are still seeing it as a red light area. In such a situation, the people living there now say that deliberately trying to defame their area is being done. This is the reason why people here are demanding a ban on the release of this film for the time being.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali does not praise
