Hindi film 'Ghooskhor Pandat' sparked a controversy Friday over its title with politicians and social media users calling it casteist, prompting filmmaker Neeraj Pandey and lead star Manoj Bajpayee to issue a clarification, saying the intention was not to cause hurt and they are withdrawing all the publicity material related to the movie.
The film, which is produced by Pandey and portrays Bajpayee as a corrupt cop, was announced Tuesday during a Netflix event in Mumbai. After the film’s teaser was unveiled, the title triggered an outrage on social media with many users saying that it portrays a particular community in bad light.
