Producer of ‘Udaipur Files’ threatened to kill his life
Meanwhile, a hearing was held on Thursday in the Delhi High Court regarding the release of the film. The court put an interim prohibition on the release of the film. The court said that the film will not be released until the central government takes a final decision in this matter.
The High Court gave the petitioner Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind for two days to register its complaint with the central government under Section 6 of the Cinematograph Act. The court also directed that if such a complaint is received, the central government will have to take a decision in a week.
This film is made on the real story
‘Udaipur Files’ is based on the murder of tailor Kanhaiya Lal Sahu in Udaipur on 28 June 2022. Kanhaiya Lal was alleged to have made a post on social media in support of former BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma, after which two attackers entered the shop and strangled him to death. The incident was recorded by the attackers and made viral on social media, which caused resentment across the country.
The film stars Vijay Raj, Rajneesh Duggal and Preity Jhangiani in important roles. The film was scheduled to release in theaters across the country on July 11. However, Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind filed a petition claiming that the content of the film could incite communal tension. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) had put several cuts before giving a certificate to the film.
At the same time, the producer of the film says that it is not against any community, but against fundamentalism and terrorism. Kanhaiya Lal’s family has supported the film amid controversy.
