Actress Anushka Sharma criticized the Government’s decision to ban the telecast of BBC documentary on Nirbhaya case ‘India’s Daughter’. The Central Government banned the documentary by British filmmaker Leslee Udwin in India a few days after the BBC granted permission to air it. Anushka, who will be next seen in NH10 said although she has not watched the documentary ‘India’s Daughter’, she feels the audience is mature enough to decide what they should watch.
“I think such things should be left to public discretion and people’s intelligence. We are old enough to deal with our emotions in that way. If other people decide what we should watch then in a way they are judging our thought process. That is my problem.
“Keeping silent about such things is not an option otherwise, it will make us regressive as a society. People will feel repressed and it would lead to a lot more problems,” said the actress
Several Bollywood celebrities termed the Centre’s decision as “ostrich mentality”.
