The BJP legislature added that the show is against the cultural ethos of the country and highly objectionable intimate scenes were a part of it. Couples of different communities were being made to become bed partners, which was unacceptable.

He further added, “Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on one hand, is trying to make India regain its lost glory and, on the other, such shows were demeaning the country's culture.”

Gujjar also demanded a censor mechanism for content being aired on television in order to prevent such incidents in the future.
