Makers of “Satyanarayan ki Katha” decides to change the name of the title

The makers of Kartik Aaryan’s recently announced upcoming film Satyanarayan Ki Katha have decided to change the project’s title to “avoid hurting sentiments”.

The new title of this Sajid Nadiadwala production has not been announced yet. Satyanarayan Ki Katha translates to the story of Satyanarayan, which is another name for Hindu god Vishnu. The title has attracted outrage on social media sites.

Aaryan reposted the Instagram post of the film’s director Sameer Vidwans. It read, “A title of the film is something that emerges organically through the creative process. We have taken a decision to change the title of our recently announced film ‘Satyanarayan ki Katha’ to avoid hurting sentiments, even if that’s purely unintentional. Producers of the film and the creative team also are in complete support of this decision. We will be announcing a new title for our love story in the due course of our journey.”
