Shiv Sena leader Aaditya Thackeray recently stopped his speech midway in Mumbai for a few minutes for the “Azaan” or the prayer call to continue. The video of the incident has gone viral on social media.
The incident took place when Aaditya Thackeray was addressing a meeting in Dilip Lande’s constituency Chandivali.
In the video, Aaditya could be seen speaking before the Azaan began. But, while the Azaan continues to play, he paused for two minutes and then he resumed his speech thereafter.

It is also seen as a move to reach out to the minorities by the Shiv Sena amid allegations from the former ally BJP of departing from its Hindutva stand and the ideology of its founder Balasaheb Thackeray.
Interestingly, the incident also comes months after the recent loudspeaker controversy, which was recently triggered in Maharashtra by Raj Thackeray, who demanded a ban on the use of loudspeakers. The Shiv Sena-led Maha Vikas Aghadi government, which was in power in Maharashtra, was against the controversy.
The junior Thackeray has been organising the Nistha Yatra to display his political clout in Mumbai weeks after Eknath Shinde camp broke away from the party to head a new government in alliance with the BJP in Maharashtra.
In the first phase of the yatra, an outreach programme for Sena workers, Aaditya will be visiting parts of Thane, Nashik and Aurangabad districts and meet the cadre besides addressing rallies at a few places.
Aaditya, who is also the head of the party’s youth wing, has been holding rallies in Mumbai to keep the party cadre intact.
