Supreme Court dismisses plea filed against Aamir Khan, director

Mumbai: It’s a breather for Aamir Khan as the Supreme Court rejects the petition seeking ban on the actor’s upcoming film ‘PK'. The petition was filed by All India Human Rights and Social Justice Front. The petitioner submitted the film promotes nudity and pleaded the apex court to immediately intervene in the matter.

The petitioner has made Aamir Khan and the director of the film Rajkumar Hirani parties in the case in addition to the Centre and the Information and Broadcasting Ministry. A case has already been filed in a court in Kanpur, on August 2, against Khan and the makers of the "PK" after its poster showed the Bollywood star barebodied except for a transistor covering his private parts.

However, the court, hearing the case today said, 'any restrictions on release of film would affect constitutional right of the film makers' and 'If you don't like then don't watch the film but don't
bring religious facets in it'.
