The Congress MLA claimed that the title of the movie maligns the name of Kathiawad city.The film is based on Gangubai, one of the most powerful, loved and respected madams from Kamathipura, Mumbai's red-light area, during the 1960s. While speaking in the House, Patel, who represents the Mumbadevi constituency in south Mumbai, said the Kamathipura area has undergone changes since the 1950, it is not the same area. . Women living in Kamathipura have chosen different professions and careers in their life. The film's title also maligns the name of Kathiawad city.
