Office-bearers and activists of Hindu religious organisations have threatened to launch a protest against artistes, writers, producer and director of Hindi movie Ravan Leela, if the Union Government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, does not impose a ban on its release, which is scheduled for Friday.
Though the title of the movie, directed by Hardik Gajjar, has been reported to be changed to Bhavai, the activists apprehended that the movie, if allowed to be released, would hurt sentiments of the Hindu community.
The activists, led by convener of the Bajrang Dal Dipanshu Garg, president of the Bhartiya Mahavir Dal Deepak Sharma, general secretary of the Shree Ram Mandir Committee Bhoj Raj Sharma and patron of the Trimurti Ram Lila Club Chandan Sharma, have threatened to launch a protest in a phased manner in case the film glorifying Ravana and maligning the image of Lord Rama is allowed to be released in the state.
Vide a memorandum sent to the President through SDM Harbans Singh, the petitioners have sought action against the CBFC and the crew of the film, besides ban on the release of the movie.
“If a ban is not imposed immediately, we will launch a protest by spreading awareness against the movie among the Hindu community,” read the memorandum.
