On Saturday, about five to six Shiva Sena members disrupted a stage drama named ‘Banjh’ (meaning infertile) being played by Pakistani actors in Gurgaon.
"They shouted slogans like 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' and disrupted the show for about five to 10 minutes," Rohilla had said.
This incident came days after Pakistani ghazal singer Ghulam Ali’s musical performance was forced cancelled in Mumbai as Shiv Sena continued its campaign against personalities coming to India from Pakistan.

Shiv Sena members also had blackened the face of former BJP leader Sudheendra Kulkrani in Mumbai when he organised a book-launch ceremony of former foreign minister Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri.
