Ranveer Singh's Jayeshbhai Jordaar Lands In Legal Trouble Just Days Before The Film’s Release-READ BLEOW
A plea has been filed against Jayeshbhai Jordaar in Delhi High Court against a scene in its trailer
Ranveer Singh starrer Jayeshbhai Jordaar is one of the most awaited movies of the year. While the film is all set to hit the theatres on May 13, it has already landed in legal trouble just days ahead of its release.
As per the reports in LiveLaw, a plea has been filed against Jayeshbhai Jordaar in Delhi High Court against a scene in its trailer. The plea was filed over a scene in the movie’s trailer where ultrasound technology is being used for prenatal sex determination.
The Public Interest Litigation (PIL) was listed before the division bench headed by acting Chief Justice Vipin Sanghi and Justice Navin Chawla.
Even though the film is trying to promote the ‘Save Girl Child’ slogan and it is against female foeticide, the trailer of the film advertises the use of ultrasound technology to determine the sex of the unborn child, as per the petitioner.
Petitioner ‘Youth Against Crime’, an NGO, filed through Advocate Pawan Prakash Pathak said: “The ultrasound clinic scene where the technology of ultrasound for sex selection is being advertised openly without censor and as per section 3, 3A, 3B, 4, 6 & 22 of the PC & PNDT Act, same is not allowed & hence the instant PIL.”
A satire on society, Jayeshbhai Jordaar also stars Arjun Reddy fame Shalini Pandey, who debuts in Hindi films opposite Ranveer. It is released on May 13.
