Last week, there were reports suggesting that a group of youth from the Farooq Nagar area approached the Falaknuma police station with a complaint that Malayalam song Manikya Malaraya Poovi featuring actress Priya Prakash Varrier, hurt sentiments of Muslims.

After receiving the complaint, the police had asked the complainant to submit video proof.

“We received complaint from a few men that upcoming movie Manikya Malaraya Poovi’s viral song's lyrics is hurting sentiments of Muslims. They haven't submitted a video proof & we asked them to provide us the same. No FIR registered yet,” ANI quoted Syed Faiyaz, ACP Falaknuma as saying last week.
