A case has been registered against Bollywood actors Sunny Deol<\/a>, Randeep Hooda and Vineet Kumar Singh for hurting religious sentiments with a scene in their newly-released film ‘Jaat<\/a>‘.<\/p>\n

The First Information Report (FIR) was filed by the Jalandhar police on Wednesday under Section 299 (deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). It was also registered against the film’s director, Gopichand Malineni, and its producers.<\/p>\n

One of the scenes in the film, which was released on April 10, has “deeply hurt the religious sentiments of the entire Christian community”, the complainant said.<\/p>\n

He alleged that disrespect was shown towards Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n

The scene in ‘Jaat<\/a>‘ reportedly shows Mr Hooda’s character standing under a crucifix inside a church, right above the holy pulpit, as people are praying.\u00a0It reportedly includes scenes of intimidation and unruly behaviour.<\/p>\n

“The director, writer and producer deliberately released this film during the holy month of Good Friday and Easter so that the Christians get angry and riots break out in the entire country and unrest is spread,” the complainant alleged, while demanding a ban on the movie.<\/p>\n

Sunny Deol’s latest action film, ‘Jaat<\/a>‘, features Randeep Hooda as the main antagonist, with a supporting cast that includes Vineet Kumar Singh, Saiyami Kher, Regina Cassandra, Prashant Bajaj, Zarina Wahab, and Jagapathi Babu.<\/p>\n

It also marked the Hindi directorial debut of Mr Malineni, known for Telugu films like “Don Seenu”, “Bodyguard”, and “Veera Simha Reddy”.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The movie has been produced by Mythri Movie Makers and People Media Factory and was released in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu languages. It earned over Rs 32 crore at the box office in its first weekend.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Mr Deol confirmed that he will be returning to the big screen with ‘Jaat 2’.<\/p>\n
