Ranbir Kapoor faces complaint for alleged religious insensitivity in Christmas celebration video December 28, 2023 at 02:10PM

A complaint has been lodged against Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor and his family members at a Mumbai police station, accusing them of hurting religious sentiments in connection with a viral video showing their Christmas celebration. As of now, no First Information Report (FIR) has been registered in this case.

The complaint was filed at Ghatkopar police station by Sanjay Tiwari, who was represented by lawyers Ashish Rai and Pankaj Mishra. Tiwari alleged that the viral video depicts Ranbir Kapoor pouring liquor on a cake and setting it on fire while uttering the phrase "Jai Mata Di," which is a religious slogan.

The complaint raises concerns about the purported act being disrespectful to religious sentiments and calls for action against the Kapoor family. The complainant contends that such behaviour is offensive and violates the cultural and religious values associated with the expression "Jai Mata Di."

It is important to note that while a complaint has been submitted, no FIR has been initiated at this stage. The legal process will involve an investigation into the allegations made in the complaint to determine if any laws have been violated.

Bollywood celebrities often share glimpses of their personal celebrations on social media platforms, including festivals and special occasions. However, these posts sometimes become subjects of controversy, with individuals raising objections based on cultural, religious, or ethical grounds.

The Mumbai police will now assess the merits of the complaint and decide whether to register an FIR. If registered, the investigation will follow the legal course, and statements from the concerned parties may be taken to ascertain the facts surrounding the viral video. The case will then proceed through the appropriate legal channels to determine whether there has been any wrongdoing in accordance with the law.

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14. This unexpected turn of events has impacted the premiere of the film which was expected to be held this week, leaving makers in an uncertain dilemma. The legal obstacle arises from a petition filed by activists from a specific religious community at the Mumbai High Court, opposing the film's release. Producers Birender Bhagat and Ravi S Gupta have raised serious concerns regarding the imposition of the stay, especially given that the film had already obtained a censor certificate. In a recent statement given to NDTV, Mr Bhagat explained their predicame...
