Kangana Ranaut voiced strong criticism regarding the OTT series ‘IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack’ accusing its producers of distorting historical facts to serve their political interests. The actress and politician lamented the perceived freedom OTT platforms have to depict graphic content and manipulate real-life events without oversight. She contrasted this with the stricter regulations faced by films with nationalist themes. In a post she wrote, “Law of the land is that one can show unimaginable amount of violence and nudity on OTT platforms without any consequence or censorship, one can even distort real life events to suit their politically motivated sinister motives, there is all the freedom for communists or leftists across the world for such anti national expressions but as a nationalist no OTT platform allows us to make films that revolves around the integrity and unity of Bharat, it seems censorship is only for some of us who don’t want ‘tukde’ of this nation and make films on historic facts. It’s hugely demotivating and unjust.” Her comments come at a time when the release of her own film, ‘Emergency’, has been delayed. Scheduled to debut on September 6th, the film in which Kangana stars as former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi is now under review by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), which has suggested multiple cuts due to the film’s sensitive content.
