Indian govt. has once again banned a movie and this time, it’s Raj-Amit Kumar’s Unfreedom. CBFC has put a ban on it saying the movie seemingly can “ignite unnatural passions” amongst Indian populace as well as bring about communal riots.
The director talks about the movie, “Two stories are juxtaposed and the film challenges the idea of religious fundamentalism and questions its connection with homosexuality which is a biting reality of India.”

‘Unfreedom’ faced rejection by Revising Committee as well as Examining Committee plus Film Certification Appellate Tribunal too negated his plea. As per Raj-Amit, committee members stated provoking Hindu-Muslim riots as the reason of rejection in addition to the ignition of unnatural passions. The maker of the movie is appalled and would soon make a plea in High Court.
