Beyonse Sharma Jayegi features Ananya Panday and Ishaan Khatter.

The makers of Ananya Panday and Ishaan Khatter's Khaali Peeli have tweaked the title and song description of the song from 'Beyonce Sharma Jayegi' to 'Beyonse Sharma Jayegi'. The song has been trending for quite some time now for its controversial lyrics hinting at racism. However, the change from Beyonce to Beyonse is nothing to do with the recent outrage.

According to news reports, Beyonce has trademarked her name to avoid commercial use. And to avoid legal repercussions, the makers have decided to make the change. They are likely to rework on the lyrics of the song as well.

Featuring Ishaan Khatter and Ananya Panday, Beyonse Sharma Jayegi was released on YouTube last Sunday (September 6). The song was heavily criticised online over its racist lyrics. Things were more complicated when the track invoked comparisons with the African-American singer-songwriter, Beyonce. The song goes like this: Oh tujhe dekh ke goriya... Beyonce sharma jayegi, which translates to After looking at you fair woman, Beyonce will feel shy. Many internet users took to Twitter to apologise to Beyonce for the song. The song has received 1 million dislikes on YouTube.

After receiving flak for its racist lyrics, the song is being ridiculed for replacing c with s in Beyonce Sharma Jayegi. Here's how the internet is reacting to this change in the name of the song.

One internet user wrote, "Good news! “Beyonce Sharma Jayegi” is now “Beyonse Sharma Jayegi!” Notice the difference? (sic)."

Another one wrote, "Indians ended racism by changing fair and lovely to glow and lovely, and beyoncé sharma jayegi to beyonse sharma jayegi (sic)."

Here are more hilarious tweets about the song.
