Fresh trouble for ‘Udta Punjab’, Punjab NGO moves to High Court

After hell lot of hassles, Abhishek Chaubey’s ‘Udta Punjab‘ finally received a green signal from Mumbai High Court. Just when the makers were heaving a sigh of relief, a fresh trouble has cropped up. An NGO based out of Punjab has moved to the Punjab High Court, demanding a stay order on the film’s release, claiming that the film depicts the state in a ‘bad light’.

Bombay High Court “could not have interfered with the decision of the CBFC,” stated the NGO’s petition; one that they wrote to a Supreme Court vacation bench.

The organisation had demanded for an urgent hearing of the case. However, the apex court informed that the petition would be mentioned not before Thursday.

Meanwhile, ‘Udta Punjab’ starring Shahid Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Diljit Dosanjh and Kareena Kapoor Khan, is scheduled to release on June 17.
