"Oppenheimer" has a scene featuring a holy Hindu scripture and the movie has drawn social media fire in India, with many users saying they would boycott the movie because of what one nationalist group called a "scathing attack on Hinduism".
Gita is a great granth, I would call it, which has the power, which can lead the entire world.
It has a message for the entire world, not just for the Hindu community.
So we mean the book in such a manner.
So it is an assault on our civilization values.
It is an assault on the Hindu community.
And therefore we have written a very strong letter to the director, Christopher Nolan,
that he should withdraw this scene from the film.
