Members
of
the
film
fraternity
reacted
strongly
against
the
orders
to
restrain
the
broadcast
of
a
documentary
based
on
December
16,
2012
gang-rape,
including
an
interview
with
a
convict.
They
termed
the
orders
a
sign
of
"ostrich
mentality" and
asked
questions
like
"Why
ban
it"
and
"Where
are
we
headed"?
The
documentary
"India's
Daughter" by
British
filmmaker
Leslee
Udwin
has
kicked
up
a
storm
over
the
interview
of
one
of
the
six
men
who
raped
the
23-year-old
trainee
physiotherapist
on
December
16,
2012
in
moving
bus
in
Delhi.
She
later
died
in
a
Singapore
hospital
where
she
had
been
airlifted
for
specialised
treatment.
The
controversial
documentary
was
uploaded
on
video
sharing
website
YouTube
by
an
individual.
The
home
ministry
on
Wednesday
said
orders
were
obtained
from
court
to
restrain
the
broadcast
of
the
documentary.
Here's
how
B-Town
reacted
over
the
ban:
Boman
Irani:
Documentaries
are
stories
of
truth!
We
should
be
embarrassed
of
the
truth
rather
than
the
fact
that
the
documentary
got
made#IndiasDaughter

just
beats
me
as
to
why
the
gov
would
want
to
ban
this.
It
needs
to
be
put
out
to
show
our
society
the
mirror,
how
the
"men"
think!

Vir
Das:
I
don't
know
what's
in
this
documentary.
But
It
seems
like
a
country
is
fighting
harder
against
embarrassment
rather
than
for
it's
women.
Kabir
Bedi:
