Congress

Offended

P*ssy
Rajiv
Sinha,
the
Congress
member
from
Kolkata
first
filed
an
FIR
against
Netflix,
Nawazuddin
Siddiqui
and
the
producers
of
Sacred

for
using
the

against
the
former

following
the
complaint.
Sacred
Games
Blamed
For
Incorrect
Representation
It
wasn't
the
subtitle
alone
that
offended
the
supporters
of
Rajiv
Gandhi.
Rajiv
Sinha's
complaint
further
read
the
facts
concerning
the
former
Prime
Minister
have
been
misrepresented.
The
congress
member
was
also
quoted
saying,
"the
show
crosses
all
limits
of
decency
and
has
taken
the
Indian
film
industry
to
a
new
low".
The
New
Plea
In
Delhi
High
Court
A
day
after
Rajiv
Sinha's
complaint,
advocate
Balla
quoted
in
his
plea
against
the
series
saying,
the
show
"incorrectly
depicts
historical
events
of
the
country
like
Bofors
case,
Shah
Bano
case,
Babri
Masjid
case
and
communal
riots".
Similar
to
the
first
complaint,
Balla's
plea
also
pointed
at
the
usage
of
the
word
in
a
scene
from
the
fourth
episode.

Will
There
Be
A
Season
2?
Rumours
hold
that
the
first
season
of
Sacred
Games
only
covers
25%
of
Vikram
Chandra's
novel.
Therefore,
there
are
high
chances
of
having
a
few
more
seasons.
Well,
we
definitely
look
forward
to
more
seasons
of
this
thriller-crime
drama.
Do
you
too?
