Carry On Jatta 3 accused of hurting religious sentiments; Shiv Sena Hind leaders file grievance
Bunty instructed ANI, “We filed a complaint on behalf of Shiv Sena Hind. In the film Carry On Jatta 3, which is aimed at Hindus, a Brahmin who is seen performing Havan rituals is humiliated in a scene. Gippy Grewal, Binnu Dhillon and Gurpreet Ghuggi have violated the faith of millions of Hindus by throwing water on the ‘Havan Kund’. Because in Hindu religion if any ritual has to be done, then ‘Havan’ is performed first.”
Explaining additional, he added, “So, today, we have filed a complaint against all of them and demanded that section 295 be imposed on them for hurting religious sentiments. And if an attempt is made by them to spoil the atmosphere in Punjab, for that, Section 153 should be imposed.”
Sunil continued, “These individuals attempt to increase their TRP by targeting the Hindu religion. They would have destroyed or set the theatre on fire if this had happened to another caste. Hinduism is a very soft religion. That’s why we went to the government first. If they won’t act within 24 hours, then the director Kang and Gurpreet Ghuggi’s house is in Jalandhar only. We will be protesting outside their homes.”
Meanwhile, Ishant Sharma asserted, “We saw the full film after people sent us the clip, and we came forward today. Our hearts are hurt, that’s why we came here to complain,” in a dialog with ANI. On the opposite hand, neither the makers nor the actors have reacted to the controversy, as of now.
