M.F. Husain
A controversy that has just arisen wherein the All India Ulema Council has filed a complaint with the Mumbai police against Mr. M.F. Husain for song Noorun-ala-Noor from his recent release 'Meenaxi'. The film stars Tabu and Kunnal Kapoor. It has been alleged that this word in the song has been lifted from the Islamic scriptures, that are used to define the persona of the Prophet Mohammed, but in the film it has been used to describe the beauty of a woman, which indeed it does not.

Mr. M.F. Husain's Statement to this issue: "My reaction to something like this is that I withdraw the film."
