The lawyer demanded that the authorities take immediate legal action to stop the Song. The complaint states that the lawyer criticized the Song as being vulgar, sexually provocative, and full of obscene words.

Indian film figures have also been impacted by the controversy over the Nora Fatehi KD the Devil Song. Kangana Ranaut publicly criticised the film industry’s attitude towards such material. She said that Bollywood had crossed every limit with its vulgarity, tactics, and attention-seeking. They are being reprimanded and condemned by the entire nation. They don’t seem to have any sense of shame. There needs to be more strictness regarding the vulgarity and abuse. Even watching TV with your family is tough. “I think Bollywood will need to be regulated.”
Onir, the filmmaker who produced the Nora Fatehi KD The Devil music video, also spoke out about the controversy caused by this Song. He directed his anger at the regulators responsible for the approval of such material. Onir wrote: “And the Censor Board is busy with The Naming of a Film #GhooskhorPandat. We are becoming a strange country… We oppose Valentine’s Day celebrations and interfaith weddings/celebrations, while being ok with the rubbish.
