'Maharaj' is the title of a thriller drama starring Junaid Khan in the lead. For those who don't know, Junaid is Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan's son. Also starring Jaideep Ahlawat in a pivotal role, the Hindi-language film is courting controversy ahead of its streaming on June 14,

The film is based on a "fight for the truth between a powerful man and a fearless journalist". You guessed it right. It is based on true events. The events in question pertain to the conservative times when Hindu society had not yet seen much reform. The story is based in the 1860s.

As per Hindus who are opposing the show, the film has anti-Hindu overtones. "The movie seeks to create a false image of Sadhus and the Vallabh Sampradaya by quoting an incident during the British regime," an X user wrote.
