The film Baawal, starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, has been embroiled by controversies. The Israel Embassy in India has now expressed its displeasure with the film's reference to Hitler's Jewish holocaust disguised as a romantic comedy. According to the Embassy, the video makes a modest reference to the excesses in the gas chambers during WWII and sensitive issues such as the Holocaust, i.e. Jewish genocide.

The Israel Embassy expressed their displeasure with the film, stating, "The Israeli embassy is disturbed by the trivialization of the significance of the Holocaust in the recent movie 'Bawaal'. There was a poor choice in the utilization of some terminology in the movie, and though we assume no malice was intended, we urge everyone who may not be fully aware of the horrors of the Holocaust to educate themselves about it. Our embassy is constantly working to propagate educational materials on this crucial subject, and we are open to engaging in conversations with all individuals to foster a better understanding of the universal lessons derived from the Holocaust."

The movie uses the setting of Hitler and the Holocaust to explain the relationship between Janhvi and Varun and the confusion that exists in their thoughts. The movie features Varun and Janhvi touring Europe. He visits museums, the Omaha Beach of Normandy, cemeteries, and other World War II-related locations during this time. The film also includes scenes of the Auschwitz concentration camp and Anne Frank's home. The persistent conflict in the married connection has also been attempted to be explained in the perspective of Hitler and World War 2. This is further illustrated in the movie by a scene where Varun and Janhvi are seen being held captive in a concentration camp. In addition to this, the movie contains a lot of monologues about Auschwitz and Hitler that are utilized to highlight the conflict going on in his head and the evil that resides inside him, i.e. Hitler.

The day before, the Jewish organization SWC had likewise voiced its disapproval of the movie. Auschwitz is not a metaphor, according to the organization, so you cannot use the crimes in the Auschwitz camp as a symbol to explain a movie. The truth about Auschwitz demonstrates the brutality of human nature.

According to a dialogue in the movie, every relationship goes through its own Auschwitz. Nitesh Tiwari mocks the 60 lakh Jews who were killed and subjected to atrocities in Auschwitz with this piece of writing. Additionally, SWC has pushed for the movie to be taken down from Amazon Prime Video.
