In a recent episode of the show, residents of Gokuldham society end up fighting each other, since they want the ‘suvichar’ written on the board in their respective languages. Bapu Ji (Amit Bhatt) solves this fight by explaining to them the importance of all languages.
Bapu Ji tells residents how all languages should be respected, since they belong to different cultures and have a rich history. He also mentions that Hindi is the most spoken language in Mumbai and that everyone understands it, therefore, they should use it at the board of society.
The president of the MNS film wing Ameya Khopkar demanded an apology from the creators for the same. He complained that despite knowing that Marathi is the main language in Mumbai, the program had its own propaganda. He said that Maharashtrian actors on the show should be ashamed to support something like this.
