Bajrang Dal workers demanded that the name of the show has to be changed from Ashram. Otherwise, the shooting will not be allowed to go on in the state, Bajrang Dal Bhopal leader Sushil Sudele said.
Reports said as the workers went on a rampage on the sets, they shouted “Prakash Jha Murdabad”, “Bobby Deol Murdabad” and “Jai Shri Ram”. They also said that they were looking for Bobby Deol, the main character of the series. Bobby Deol should learn something from his brother Sunny Deol, they said.
