These are people who do not stand for that. Their agenda is to do anything that is against uniting the people of India. Problem is these people have no idea about the greatness of India and what India stands for. These are people who have no understanding about the social fabric of India, so I do not take them seriously,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think these are people who are just looking for their five minutes of fame. They are coming to us under the garb of being religious organizations. Like Salman had said , &#8216;if they are truly religious organisations, they would never do this, because every religion speaks about love and respect to other religions\u2019. <em>Bajrangi Bhaijaan<\/em> is a unique celebration of unity and celebration of the different cultures of India . The less we pay attention to these organisations the better, because all they are looking for is their five minutes of fame,\u201d the director further said.<\/p>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kabir Khan Slams &#039;Religious Groups&#039; Opposing Bajrangi Bhaijaan On Flimsy Grounds\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vBiLAtjcfP4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/center><br \/> The film tells the heartwarming story of how Salman Khan\u2019s character Pawan Kumar Chaturvedi helps Munni reach her home in Pakistan from India after she gets separated from her mother on their way back home from India.
