A Muslim cleric on Monday opposed the telecast of a Bengali TV serial based on Bangladesh author Taslima Nasreen's script which he felt could hurt the sentiments of the community.

Maulana Nurur Rahman Barkati, Shahi Imam of the Tipu Sultan Mosque here, slammed the author for indulging in 'cheap publicity' through her serial 'Dusahobas', that could lead to communal strife.

"She is from Bangladesh and should restrict her activities to that country. She should not do such things that could lead to communal discord here," Barkati said.

According to Nasreen, the serial will portray women in strong roles, fighting against oppression and demanding their rights.

It will be screened on Monday to Saturday at 10 p.m. on Aakash Aath channel, starting from December 19.

The so called status of women is only mentioned in the holy book and it never gets translated in the same format.. people decipher it for their advantage .. then what is the point of mentioning that .. and it holds true for all religions

I'm not particularly fond of any except Sushmita and Amrita! They both look so beautiful! Btw, small mistake, Amrita's debut was in Legend of Bhagat Singh not Ab Ke Baras. :)
