‘Ghooskhor Pandit’ Row: Delhi High Court Closes Case After Title Change Assurance
Ghooskhor Pandat Row: A major update has now emerged regarding Neeraj Pandey's 'Ghooskhor Pandit'. The makers have decided to change the name of the film following the controversy. Find out what the makers informed the court...
Controversy has been brewing since the announcement of Manoj Bajpayee's upcoming film 'Ghooskhor Pandit'. The controversy centers on the title of the film, which carries the word 'Pandit.' The case was brought before the Delhi High Court after the issue gained enough public outcry. The FMC had also demanded a ban on the film. However, the filmmakers have made a significant decision regarding this case. It was informed to the court by Netflix that the filmmakers have decided to change the title of the film.
The Delhi High Court today took up a plea to stop the release and streaming of the movie "Ghooskhor Pandit." The plea stated that the title and content of the movie were defamatory and objectionable. In the course of the hearing, Netflix informed the court that the makers of the movie "Ghuskhor Pandit" were ready to change the title of the movie. The OTT platform assured the court that the makers were going to change the film's title and that all promotional material related to the film had already been removed from social media. Following this, the court dismissed the matter.
Noting Netflix's decision to change the title and remove promotional material, the single-judge bench of Justice Purushendra Kumar Kaurav stated that there was no justification for further orders on the petition. Netflix and the makers agreed to change the film's name. Based on this, the matter is considered settled.
