Ek thi Daayan Lands up in trouble!! - Page 3

I think the percentage of ppl accused of being a witch is far less than the percentage of women abused after watching the kalakaris on TV. So ban all ridiculous Saas bahu dramas first.

Seriously...all these feminists need to STFU🤢

But this is not a gender issue. There are witches and there are warlocks. All pagan practitioners face equal risk.

Hi there,
😲
In fact to add to the promotion of the movie Ek Thi Daayan a Book titled Daayan is to be launched

Vishal Bharadwaj and Ekta Kapoor are taking the promotions for Ek Thi Daayan a notch higher. They came up with a unique idea of producing a television series called 'Ek Thi Naayika', for which the top actresses of the television industry were roped in. Now, the duo is all set to release a book called 'Daayan' by Ved Prakash Sharma. This book will have real stories related to witches and supernatural powers.

Apart from the stories, it will also have a gist of the film. Interestingly, in one of the episodes, Shweta Tiwari was shown reading a Ved Prakash novel about daayans.

The book will soon be available in stores. Ek Thi Daayan is all set to release on 19th April, 2013.

^Umm, none of the above actually happens in real life (people beating up each other after seeing an action movie). But burning of "witches" in villages IS a real problem.

I have watched Ek Thi Naayika & the show does support a lot of superstition prevelent in India so I think they would show it in Ek Thi Daayan.

I feel ipsita is right on her place. If they are showing burning women (witches?), its not a good thing potrayed in the film. The film says "Chudail ki saari taakat uski choti me hoti h", this is a worldwide release which will also be shown in rural areas & women are actually hunted there as suspected witches, so will all women having long chotis will be suspected as witches? Probably Yes which will further infuriate the witches superstitions.

I know that because of such things, you can't let the art affect so I think they should probably censor the oversensitive stuff & give out a huge disclaimer against some actions in the film which might promote superstition. That's the only way for both parties to be satisfied IMO.
