It was reported that the film 'Gulab Gang' was based on Pal, who heads a women's group (called Gulabi Gang) in Uttar Pradesh's Bundelkhand region and takes up the cause of women facing violence, domestic and social problems. "I will not let the film to be released before my permission," Pal told PTI, before entering the 'Bigg Boss' house.

"I feel she (Madhuri) should meet me once before the shooting begins. It is not that I will not give permission to make a film based on me. I feel that if she has not seen or met me in real life, how can she portray the role on screen with justice," she said.
