Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Kirit Somaiya on Wednesday said that this is not the government of Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray where 'The Kerala Story' film will get banned in the state.

While reacting to NCP leader Jitendra Awhad's comment where he mentioned that The Kerala story filmmaker should be hanged, Kirit Somaiya said, "This is not the Uddhav Thackeray government in Maharashtra where this movie will get banned. Is Jitendra Awhad worried about Muslim voters?"
