Shahrukh’s upcoming film Pathaan is releasing on January 25, 2023, and is directed by Siddharth Anand. controversy surrounding the use of saffron-colored clothes in the song “Besharam Rang” As you know, this controversy is getting bigger and bigger as the film gets closer to its release date.
Some theaters were also vandalized by some members of “Bajrang Dal“, and effigies of Shahrukh Khan and Deepika Padukone were also burned in some places. Due to this, Suniel Shetty also requested, in a conference two days ago, that if you want to boycott Bollywood trends, they will come to an end. And saying that there are many good people in Bollywood because one is bad, all of them cannot be called bad. “*Date: 06th Jan, 2023 FWICE strongly condemns the ongoing trend of “#Boycott Bollywood” and seek immediate. protection against hooliganism in theaters and threats to the producers.
The recent trend of “#Boycott Bollywood” has been affecting the producers and lakhs of workers working for the films, and it has been seriously noted by the FWICE as it has raised a major situation of survival for the common workers, technicians, and artists who are earning their daily bread from this industry. It is not only the producer/writer or the director, there are lakhs of crewmembers associated with one film. There is a huge investment in films, and lakhs of people earn their livelihood from them. With such a large enterprise, it is only natural that filmmakers have to do their utmost to make the product that will fetch the best returns.
It is easy for people to boycott a film, but what about the producer, who has invested enormously in its making? A film is made with passion and a dream of success. However, these blooming dreams get shattered by such trends, which are often influenced by people who believe in hatred and those who do not support peace, harmony, and unity. People have been barging into the theaters, threatening the public, and forcefully vacating the theaters. There have been threats to the producers and the lead actors and actresses. They are abused on social media platforms with filthy or vulgar language.
We strongly condemn these acts and the boycotting of any film that is already certified by the final cell of the film authorities, which is the CBFC. Getting a film certified through the CBFC is itself an achievement, as the film and filmmakers are going through the entire process of certification. The protestors of the film should thus follow the right channel and report their grievances against the film to the CBFC and other governing authorities rather than coming up with such a destructive trend as to blatantly boycott the entire industry. We appreciate people boycotting films for their rights and reasonable objections, but an indiscriminate boycott of Bollywood films shall not be accepted or allowed at any cost. This should end somewhere.
FWICE stands strong in support of the producers who are creating films and generating employment for lakhs of people, helping them earn their living and survive with dignity. We urge the government to intervene in the matter and stop this trend of “boycotting Bollywood.”

The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has issued a statement regarding the boycott trends in Bollywood and seeks help from the government in this matter. While strongly condemning it, Fwice said that the ongoing trend is called hooliganism.
Some people who are demanding a boycott of Bollywood have raised a major issue because it is causing losses to the director and producer. Those who are instigating people to boycott the film by not watching it are not harmed by it. The loss is for those who work hard in making films, such as lightmen, technicians, and spot cameramen. What about these people, whose livelihood comes from this alone? If the audience does not come to the theater, then what will happen to the people working there?
