The Punjab Police on Thursday, 26 December, booked actor Raveena Tandon, director Farah Khan and others for allegedly commenting on Jesus Christ on a television show.
"We received a complaint against actor Raveena Tandon, comedian Bharti Singh, and director-producer, Farah Khan, claiming they hurt sentiments of the Christian community, during a television show. They have been booked," Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Sohan Singh said. A case was registered on Wednesday on the basis of a complaint filed by Sonu Jafar, president of Christian Front of Ajnala Block, along with video footage of the show aired on Christmas eve.
The trio has been booked under Section 295A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) which pertains to "malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings by insulting religion or religious beliefs".
Jafar, alleged, as per the report, that the trio was seen trivialising the word 'hallelujah' in a video, which has hurt the sentiments of Christians.
"Hallelujah" is a Hebrew word uttered in worship or as an expression of rejoicing. It means, "God be praised."
Raveena Tandon last appeared on screen in a cameo appearance in ‘Shehar Ki Ladki’ alongside Suneil Shetty. The song from the film Rakshshak, which originally featured Tandon and Shetty, has been recreated by Tanishk Bagchi for the movie Khandaani Shafakhana. It has been sung by singer-rapper Badshah and Tulsi Kumar and it features actor Diana Penty.
As per earlier reports, Farah Khan is expected to collaborate with Rohit Shetty for a musical drama.
Talking about her upcoming film, Farah said, "We have finished most of the scripting and have a month more to go and then we will start casting. We are having fun. It's a full fledged musical with action in it. It's my movie and then Rohit's movie. So, you know what to expect."
