It's like spitting Poison when in reality, Shivaji Maharaj were The Inspiration for Military of many countries like @IDF , Vietnam, @adgpi .
Also, @SrBachchan to apologize & #Boycott_KBC_SonyTv@Ramesh_hjs @RituRathaur pic.twitter.com/pxfJgx7SYT
Well, which asking this question, Big B only mentioned Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj as Shivaji. Netizens noticed the disrespect towards the great Maratha warrior and started bashing the show as well as the megastar on Twitter for mentioning him as just Shivaji. Social media users also asked Amitabh to apologies for the same.
How one can say Mughal attacker as 'Samrat' and our Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj as just 'Shivaji' ???

Bharat (भारत) बहादुर हिंदू राजाओं और योद्धाओं की भूमि है, जिन्होंने बर्बर आक्रमणों को वापस लड़ा। ऐसी महान हस्तियों का अपमान करने का किसी को अधिकार नहीं है! #Boycott_KBC_SonyTv pic.twitter.com/3tkfT5d0hK

छत्रपति शिवाजी महाराज के नाम को आदर के साथ न लेना क्या ये सही है? वीर योद्धा का अपमान करना कितना शर्मनाक खुद से पूछ कर देखिए । हम सोते रहते है और इस तरह के वाक्य बढ़ते रहते है। जागो हिन्दू जागो हिन्दू धर्म के लिए हिन्दू राष्ट्र के लिए! pic.twitter.com/JRRK8cfbhC— Shweta Jamnare (@ShwetaJamnare) November 8, 2019
