Kerala HC to watch ‘Janaki v/s State of Kerala’ amid CBFC objection over title, Next hearing on THIS date

The Kerala High Court is reviewing 'Janaki v/s State of Kerala' after the CBFC objected to the title, deeming "Janaki," a name for the Hindu goddess Sita, inappropriate for a film about sexual assault. The court questioned this reasoning and will privately screen the film before the next hearing. The delay in certification has sparked protests, with filmmakers alleging financial losses and violation of freedom of expression.
