Disheartening! Haraamkhor Film-makers Receive Death Threats
Haraamkhor film-maker Anurag Kashyap receives death threats for the controversial content in the film. Haraamkhor will see Nawazuddin Siddiqui, a school teacher falling in love with his girl student.
It looks like Anurag Kashyap's upcoming controversial movie 'Haraamkhor' has not been liked by the moral police as the film-makers have been receiving death threats through emails from various activists who claim to be self authorized moral police. The name of the movie sounds harsh and the story shows Nawazuddin Siddiqui, a school teacher having a love affair with his girl student.
Talking
about
the
threats,
co-producer
Guneet
Monga
said,
"As
a
creative
person
in
the
film
industry,
it's
disheartening
to
see
people
make
judgments
of
films,
actors
and
content
without
actually
having
seen
it
themselves.
Getting
such
messages
and
emails
from
random
self
authorized
moral
police
really
needs
to
stop
but
I
guess
people
will
do
what
they
have
to
do."
He further commented, "We have got our judgment and the film will release. We will keep an action prepared in case if there's any intentional harm being caused to our film, however currently we don't wish to dig in further and give such individuals and groups more reason to be unreasonable."
Haraamkhor was first banned by the CBFC for its controversial content and the film-makers appealed to the FCAT (Film Certification Appellate Tribunal) and won the case. The film is all set to be released on 13th January 2017.
