  • Mallika Sukumaran | Row Over Empuraan: Political Pressure Or Proxy Censorship?
    A cinematic storm is brewing as the makers of "Empuraan" cave to pressure, announcing voluntary cuts to the film amidst a maelstrom of criticism. The movie's depiction of sensitive historical events has ignited a fierce debate, with the BJP and RSS launching a scathing attack on the film's alleged anti-Hindu narrative. Meanwhile, the Kerala CM and Congress have rallied to its defense. Actor Mohanlal has attempted to douse the flames with a public apology, acknowledging the responsibility of artists to avoid inciting hatred. But the criticism continues to pour in, with former Infosys CFO Mohandas Pai branding the film 'propaganda'. At the eye of the storm is a contentious reference to the Godhra riots, sparking a national conversation on creative freedom, historical accuracy, and the boundaries of artistic expression. But the big question is, is it political pressure or proxy censorship?

  • Political Hypocrisy On Free Speech: Is The Joke On Us?
    Jokes and satire are meant to evoke laughter but in India they trigger outrage, police cases, hounding of comedians and artistes. The latest in the club is Kunal Kamra, whose satire on Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has run roughshod of the establishment. This is no laughing matter, as Mr Shinde's supporters ransacked the studio where Mr Kamra performed. Former chief minister Uddhav Thackeray defended Mr Kamra against the BJP and Sena attacks, who on their part reminded Mr Thackeray of his action on actor Kangana Ranaut when BMC bulldozers under his watch demolished parts of Ms Ranaut's home. The BJP called him a hypocrite on free speech. Doesn't it all sound like a big political circus? Why can't India take a joke? When and how did we lose our funny bone? Is the joke on us? That's our big debate on Left, Right and Centre, only on NDTV.

    Judge Cash Case | The Supreme Court has released a bombshell report—complete with videos and photos—showing sacks of charred currency notes allegedly recovered from the residence of Delhi High Court Judge Yashwant Varma during a fire-fighting operation. Justice Varma has denied claims of a massive cash stash hidden at his home. But the questions are mounting, and Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna has now tasked a three-member panel of high court judges to get to the bottom of it. Whatever it is, it demands complete & full attention of the top echelon of the concerned institutions and it is certainly a time to not brush these issues of corruption under the carpet
