A few days back, Prithvi Mhaske of Sangharsh Foundation objected to the "toilet leakage scene" in the Rajkumar Hirani directorial.
He wrote a letter to CBFC chief Prasoon Joshi and stated that the scene portrays Indian jails in a bad light.
Mhaske also threatened to drag the makers to the court if the certification board didn't take any action.
