It also raised objections to the language used in the film, which it says does not go with the behavioural norms of Indian armed forces personnel.
The IAF uniform in this video is inaccurately donned & the language used is inappropriate. This does not conform to the behavioural norms of those in the Armed Forces of India. The related scenes need to be withdrawn.@NetflixIndia @anuragkashyap72#AkvsAk https://t.co/F6PoyFtbuB

The movie is set to be released on January 4.
The plot of this movie, which stars Anil Kapoor and director Anurag Kashyap, revolves around a kidnapping. Kashyap, a brash film director, abducts Anil Kapoor’s daughter in the movie.
Directed by Vikramaditya Motwane, the synopsis of the movie reads: “A visionary director, an old school actor, and a camera rolling for 10 hours. Anurag Kashyap, Indian cinema’s enfant terrible, kidnaps Sonam Kapoor and films her father, the evergreen, Anil Kapoor’s search for his daughter in real-time, as his next blockbuster. AK vs AK is Vikramaditya Motwane’s upcoming film, starring Anurag Kashyap and Anil Kapoor, as themselves.”
