Raj Thackeray Removes Modi-Adani Documentary After Mumbai Police Request
Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray removed a documentary on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and industrialist Gautam Adani from his social media following a request from the Mumbai Police Commissioner. The film, produced by Hotmail founder Sabir Bhatia, had over 48 lakh views on X and highlighted the longstanding ties between Modi and Adani. Thackeray has raised concerns about their relationship since January 2026. Despite the removal, earlier related videos remain accessible, and some MNS leaders expressed surprise at the documentary's deletion.
