PIL Filed Against Aamir Khan’s Film For Disrupting Peace In West Bengal

Even
after
its
release,
Aamir
Khan’s
latest
release

Laal
Singh
Chaddha
continues
to
grab
eyeballs
for
various
reasons.
The
latest
we
hear
is
that
a
PIL
(Public
Interest
Litigation)
has
been
filed
against
the
movie
in
the
Kolkata
High
Court.

According
to
a
report
in
India
Today,
Advocate
Nazia
Elahi
Khan
has
moved
Kolkata
High
Court
and
demanded
a
complete
ban
on
the
Aamir
Khan-Kareena
Kapoor
starrer
in
West
Bengal
citing
peace
disorder.

Another
report
in
Live
Law
mentioned
the
plea
stating,
“The
trend
in
Social
Media
has
been
advocated
by
quite
a
large
amount
of
people
and
they
would
further
not
want
others
to
go
and
watch
this
film
in
the
theatres
as
that
would
make
their
‘hard
work’
go
futile.
Such
anger
and
frustration
on
seeing
that
some
people
are
going
to
watch
the
film
can
lead
to
a
serious
threat
to
the
law
and
order
situation
in
the
State
of
West
Bengal.
Such
factions
who
want
to
boycott
the
film
may
not
let
others
watch
the
film
in
the
theatres
and
this
may
lead
to
tussle
and
further
may
loosen
the
grip
of
the
State
over
the
law
and
order
situation.
Such
a
situation
seriously
leads
to
an
apprehension
that
the
law
and
order
situation
in
the
State
may
be
compromised
if
the
film
is
exhibited
in
the
theatres
any
further.”

Nazia
also
claimed
in
her
PIL
that

Laal
Singh
Chaddha
demoralized
and
defamed
the
Indian
Army
by
representing
them
in
an
incorrect
way.

Helmed
by
Advait
Chandan,
Aamir
Khan-Kareena
Kapoor’s

Laal
Singh
Chaddha
was
one
of
the
most-anticipated
films
of
2022.
Unfortunately,
upon
its
theatrical
release,
the
film
failed
to
set
the
cash
registers
ringing
at
the
box
office
as
it
fell
prey
to
the
boycott
culture.

Laal
Singh
Chaddha
is
an
adaptation
of
Tom
Hanks’ cult
classic

Forrest
Gump.
The
movie
also
marks
the
Bollywood
debut
of
Telugu
star
Naga
Chaitanya.
