According
to
ANI,
Delhi-based
Vineet
Jindal
lawyer
submitted
a
complaint
to
Delhi
Police
Commissioner
Sanjay
Arora
against
Aamir
Khan,
Paramount
Pictures
and
several
others.
He
stated
in
his
complaint
that
the
actor's
portrayal
of
Laal
Singh
Chaddha
is
disrespectful
to
the
officers
of
the
Indian
Army.
As
per
the
news
agency,
the
complaint
read,
"In
the
movie,
the
makers
have
depicted
that
a
mentally
challenged
person
was
allowed
to
join
Army
to
fight
in
the
Kargil
War.
It
is
a
well-known
fact
that
the
best
army
personnel
were
sent
to
fight
the
Kargil
war
and
rigorously
trained
army
personnel
fought
the
war
but
the
movie
makers
intentionally
depicted
the
said
situation
to
demoralise
and
defame
the
Indian
army."
Further,
Vineet
also
alleged
in
his
complaint
that
a
scene
in
Laal
Singh
Chaddha
hurts
the
religious
sentiments
of
a
particular
community.
The
sequence
in
question
has
a
Pakistani
army
officer
asking
Aamir
Khan's
character
Laal
the
reason
why
he
is
never
seen
praying
to
which
the
latter
says,
"My
mother
said
all
this
puja
paath
is
malaria.
It
causes
riots."
Jindal
claimed
in
his
complaint
that
this
scene
and
statement
not
only
instigates
and
provokes
sentiments
but
that
it
also
causes
enraged
emotions
among
the
Hindu
religion
followers.
"This
statement
shows
his
intent
of
waging
war
and
activating
enmity
between
different
groups
on
the
grounds
of
religion
which
is
against
the
ideology
of
a
secular
democratic
country
like
and
also
mischief
against
Indian
army
which
is
a
criminal
offence
as
per
the
law
of
the
land,"
the
advocate
said
in
his
complaint.
Vineet
has
sought
registration
of
an
FIR
against
Aamir
Khan
and
others
involved
under
sections
153
(wantonly
giving
provocation
with
intent
to
cause
riot),
153A
(promoting
enmity
between
different
groups),
298
(wounding
the
religious
feelings
of
any
person),
and
505
(statements
conducing
to
public
mischief)
of
the
India
Penal
Code.

Khan-starrer

Hanks' Hollywood

Gump.
