"Such films hurt brotherhood": Congress' Amarinder Warring amid chaos over Kangana Ranaut's film

Chandigarh (Punjab) [India], January 17 (ANI): Amid the ruckus over Kangana Ranuat's film 'Emergency', Punjab Congress chief Amarinder Singh Raja Warring on Friday morning said that governments and censor boards must keep an eye on such films as they "hurt" the brotherhood in the country. He said that such films show scripted stories, which are not true.
Warring further claimed that such films twist facts as they wouldn't be successful if there was no 'masala'.
"Whenever such films are made, the facts are twisted in them because the film won't succeed if there is no 'masala'. Similarly, Udta Punjab was also made...I mean to say that it is not right that such films are made only for entertainment. Governments and sensor boards should keep an eye on such movies as they harm the brotherhood in the country because what is shown is not true, it is just a scripted story," Warrning, who is also a Congress MP, told ANI.
Meanwhile, a Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) member said that their protest was against the film 'Emergency' since it depicts the history of the Sikh religion and the history of 1984 in a "distorted" manner.

"Our protest today is over the release of Kangana Ranaut's 'Emergency'. In this film history of the Sikh religion and the history of 1984 has been presented in a distorted manner. We had protested against this earlier also when its teaser came out, but the government did nothing against it. The censor board, instead of stopping it, gave it a green signal and the program of the release of the movie was complete," he said.
The individual associated with the SGPC said that the Punjab government will be responsible in case the law and order is disturbed since they have already written to Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann but there was no response.
"The SGPC taking suo moto has decided to protest against the screening of the film. The cinema owners did not put up the movie today. The Punjab government will be responsible for the disturbance of Law and Order...because we wrote to the CM also, but there was no reply from him..."
The police personnel in heavy numbers have been deployed outside the PVR Suraj Chanda Tara Cinema in Punjab's Amritsar after SGPC decided to protest against the film being produced by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP.
Earlier, SGPC president Advocate Harjinder Singh Dhami wrote a letter to Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, accusing the film of being "politically motivated with an aim to defame Sikh community".
Meanwhile, leaders of farmer groups from Sindhupur have gathered outside the Cinemas located in Dhillon Plaza and Cosmo plaza in Zirakpur, Mohali. The farmers have alleged that Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut used vulgar language against them during the ongoing farmera protest. The protest has led to the deployment of police forces and the halting of all shows at the cinema. (ANI)
