SRINAGAR: A petition has been filed in the Jammu and Kashmir High Court, seeking a stay on the release of Hindi movie ‘Shikara’ which is based on exodus of Kashmir Pandits from the valley in 1990.
The petition, filed by three social activists on Monday before the registry of the high court, is seeking stay on release of the movie on the grounds that besides not being based on facts, it was also “communal in nature”.
The petition has not been listed for a hearing yet.
The activists have sought a review and editing of the “objectionable” scenes and narrations of the movie which, the petitioners claim, blames the entire Kashmiri population for the exodus of the Kashmiri Pandits from the valley in 1990. (AGENCIES)
