Delhi High Court dismiss petition seeking ban on Hindi movie 'Finding Fanny'

A Bench of Chief Justice Rohini and Justice Rajiv Sahai Endlaw of Delhi High Court dismissed a PIL 'Nandini Tewari vs Union of India and other' Writ Petition (Civil) No.6053/2014 on 10th September 2014. The PIL sought a ban on the release of director Homi Adajania's new Movie 'Finding Fanny' starring Deepika Padukone and Arjun Kapoor. The PIL alleged that the word "fanny" was vulgar and was a slang and should be removed from the movie, its songs, posters and banners. It said the dictionary meaning of the word "fanny" was highly sexually explicit, and using the word in the movie will hurt the feelings of the citizens of India, especially minor children. It said that allowing such words in films and television will pollute children's minds. It also challenged the UA certificate given to this movie. 

The film released on Friday 12th September 2014.
