Authorities maintaining the Dargah of Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti in Ajmer on Friday demanded that some scenes of Namaste London , shot inside the shrine with Katrina Kaif wearing a knee-length skirt, should be deleted.
The Dargah committee's Nazim, Ahamed Raza said, "We have clarified that no permission for the shooting was granted by the dargah committee.
"We have demanded removal of the controversial scenes shot inside the Dargah in which Katrina Kaif is seen in a short skirt.
"We have also said that the actress' dress has affected emotions of Muslims," Raza said.
Asserting that the Dargah committee had never given a clean chit to director Vipul Amrutlal Shah and Katrina, he said such a move may be considered only after the scenes are removed.
Shah had on March 14 claimed that ‘Namaste London’ would be screened with the original shots taken at the Dargah. He also said he was ready to re-shoot the scenes if anyone comes out with any objection.
Katrina was slapped a notice by the Dargah committee last year for exposing her legs inside the shrine premises while shooting.
Rishi Kapoor , Shah and a local resident Babubhai Goshi were also served notices.
