The
VHP
has
said
Aamir
Khan's
movie
PK
has
several
scenes
that
hurt
religious
sentiments
of
Hindus
and
has
written
to
the
information
and
broadcasting
ministry
demanding
a
curb
on
such
movies
and
"changing
the
character
of
the
censor
board".
In
a
letter
to
the
ministry,
the
Vishwa
Hindu
Parishad
said,
"the
movie
has
been
made
to
hurt
and
provoke
Hindu
religious
sentiments".
The
letter,
signed
by
VHP
spokespersons
Vinod
Bansal
and
Vijay
Shankar
Tiwari,
referred
to
some
scenes
in
the
movie
and
said
some
similar
movies
"targeting
Hindu
practices" have
been
made
in
the
past
which
have
been
ignored
by
the
censor
board.
"It
is
requested
that
such
films
are
stopped
and
character
of
institutions
like
censor
board,
which
approve
such
movies,
is
corrected," the
letter
said.
Bansal
said
police
complaints
have
been
filed
in
many
parts
of
the
country
against
the
movie
by
people
who
have
taken
objection
to
its
contents.
However,
senior
BJP
leader
L.K.
Advani
has
hailed
the
movie
as
a
"wonderful
and
courageous
film".
A
movie
buff,
Advani
recently
watched
the
film
directed
by
Rajkumar
Hirani.
