Akshay Kumar’s upcoming film 'Prithviraj' has landed in yet another controversy much before its release.

In Chandigarh, a protest was held on Thursday during which the demonstrators raised slogans against the upcoming movie and burnt effigies of Akshay, producer and director as they demanded a change in the title.

People associated with the Kshatriya Mahasabha said the name of the action-drama should be Hindu Samrat Prithviraj Chauhan or Emperor Prithviraj Chauhan.

According to the protesters, the present title does not pay respect to the ruler Prithviraj who was the last Hindu emperor.
