And guess what ? The Mumbai High Court gave order to remove the billboards immediately. No, I am serious. The news came in Malayalam Newspapers too. Here is the copy (Mathrubhumi Newspaper). For those can't understand Malayalam, I have included a translation (Uncle is not good in English, so forgive me if there are any mistakes)
