Bajrang Dal workers on Sunday ransacked the sets of filmmaker Prakash Jha's upcoming web series 'Ashram 3' in Bhopal.

According to a report by NDTV, Prakash Jha was roughed up and his face smeared with ink. Videos shot by a few witnesses showed Bajrang Dal members chasing down crew members, catching at least one of them and beating him with a metal rod.

Members of the Bajrang Dal alleged that 'Ashram', starring Bobby Deol, was an 'assault' on Hinduism, and said that they will not allow the show to be filmed till title of the show was changed.

Bajrang Dal leader was caught on camera saying, "We are looking for Bobby Deol. He should learn something from Sunny Deol. He has made such patriotic movies"

The police have said that though Prakash Jha hasn't filed a complaint, those involved in the incident will be arrested.
