KATHMANDU,

A PIL (Public Interest Litigation) has been filed against Amir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer film ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ at the Kolkata High Court.

According to reports of the Indian media, the PIL calls for a complete ban on the film in Bengal citing peace disturbance. The matter will be heard in the court of Chief Judge Prakash Srivastava on August 23.

According to a report of India Today, if the ban is not enforced, a police force should be posted outside every theater because what is shown in the film can disturb the peace and order in Bengal. Advocate Nazia Elahi Khan has filed the PIL. According to her, the army is not represented properly in the film.

Earlier, there was a huge controversy even before the film’s release. There was a twitter trend to boycott the film.
