Bihar: Television Czarina Ekta Kapoor's web series Triple X-2 got mired in controversy and brought massive social media outrage and legal trouble for her. Kshatriya Rashtriya Mahasabha spokesperson Kritika Singh has lodged a complaint to chief justice of Munger Court raising objection over inappropriate and vulgar content of the series.

Kritika demanded to halt the show and accused the team for tarnishing the reputation of Indian army and their uniforms.

Triple X-2 is based on lives of army personnel. Raising strong objection to the web series, Martyrs Welfare Foundation (MWF) chairman Major T.C. Rao said that army soldiers sacrifice their lives for the country, but the series' producer and director have depicted that armymen's wives are intimate with other men at home when their husbands are away serving on the borders.

"As an individual and as an organisation we are deeply respectful towards the Indian Army. Their contribution to our well-being and security is immense. We have already deleted the scene that is being spoken about, so action has been taken from our side. What we don't appreciate is the bullying and the rape threats by the trolls," said Ekta, referring to the massive cyber bullying she has witnessed after the controversy burgeoned over the past few days.

The controversial scene had landed the makers in a spot, what the hashtag #ALTBalaji_Insults_Army trending on Twitter Tuesday onwards.
