"The new song will replace the old one across all platforms over the next 3 days," the music lael announced.
Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra earlier asked makers of 'Madhuban' song to take it down due to 'obscenity'.
Mishra tweeted: "Some heretics are constantly hurting Hindu sentiments. ‘Radhika Nache in Madhuban’ is such a despicable attempt. I am instructing Sunny Leone ji and Sharib Toshi ji to understand and take care. If both of them did not remove the song by apologizing in three days then we will take action against them."
कुछ विधर्मी लगातार हिंदू भावनाओं को आहत कर रहे हैं। ‘मधुबन में राधिका नाचे’ ऐसा ही कुत्सित प्रयास है। मैं सनी लियोनी जी व शारिब तोशी जी को हिदायत दे रहा हूं कि समझें और संभलें। अगर तीन दिन में दोनों ने माफी माँगकर गाना नहीं हटाया तो हम उनके खिलाफ एक्शन लेंगे। pic.twitter.com/9DbgQV4cuy

Narottam Mishra also warned action will be taken if no steps are taken by the makers to remove the song.
Sung by Kanika Kapoor and Arindam Chakraborty, the song was released on Wednesday.
