Recently in an event actress Parineeti Chopra spoke on Pahlaj Nihalani-Jab Harry Met Sejal’s intercourse controversy. She said, “I think we have started over-thinking things. It’s true that a lot of things do impact the society, but films also play a role in it. If there is anything in the film which will have huge negative impact on kids, us, then that should be dealt with but there are certain things about which we are overthinking. I won’t name anyone but I feel we are becoming over-strict. Somewhere we are going against the freedom of making films. Films are larger than life. We show things which don’t otherwise happen in real life in the movies. But when we over-think and start cutting a lot of things, then it’ll become a documentary.”
She added, “We should allow that freedom of expression, allow filmmakers to use their imaginative minds to entertain you all. So I feel we have started over-thinking.’’
If you don’t know about the controversy let us tell you that Pahlaj Nihalani, chief of Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) didn’t like the use of word ‘intercourse’ in the upcoming Imtiaz Ali movie ‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’. He said, “We’ve granted a ‘UA’ to the trailer on condition of deletion of the dialogue about intercourse. But they’ve not come back to us with the deletion. So in principle, the trailer has not been passed yet.” For this, he was trolled on the internet.
Talking about Parineeti Chopra, the actress will be seen in the sequel of Namaste London.
