Homi Adajania’s directorial venture has courted another controversy. Read on to know full story…
Finding Fanny starring Deepika Padukone, Arjun Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Naseerudin Shah and Pankaj Kapur has released today. However, the the quirky comedy has ran into trouble yet again because of a certain dialogue which is mouthed by the Kapoor lad in the film. Few activists in Karnataka have objected to Arjun’s dialogue where he apparently calls the state ‘mental’. In fact, they even demanded to ban the film in Karnataka. While talking to a leading tabloid, local distributor from Karnataka, Pal Chandani said, “Some activists landed outside the studio’s office in Bangalore where they protested against the film and demanded a ban on it, as they felt that the actor had insulted the state in the film.”
UD Dharmaraj, President, Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce told the tabloid, “We asked the studio to delete the objectionable dialogue. Only then will this film release in Karnataka.” Well, the makers had no other option but to remove the dialogue from the film to ensure release in Karnataka.
However, the director of Finding Fanny isn’t too happy with this. He told the same tabloid, “The Censor Board passes our film and now we have an issue with Arjun’s character venting his exasperation about getting lost on a journey? All he does is stray into Karnataka and say, ‘We are in a bloody mental state’. It obviously refers to the character’s state of mind, so why is it being misconstrued unnecessarily?”
