Aamir Khan and Anushka Sharma starrer ‘PK’, which has received rave reviews and also made waves with its box office collections, has earned the ire of Hindu groups who claim the film hurts the sentiments of the majority community.

Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) has sought an immediate ban on ‘PK’ movie, saying its content is “highly provocative” and hurts the religious sentiments of the community.

Maharashtra Coordinator of Hindu Janajagruti Samiti Sunil Dhanvat today said the outfit has filed police complaints against the film and its makers in Navi Mumbai, Nagpur and Sangli.

Hindu Janajagruti Samiti activist Uday Dhuri, who filed the complaint with Navi Mumbai Police after watching the Rajkumar Hirani-directed movie, said the film is openly critical of many rituals and traditions followed by Hindus and hence it should be banned.

Dhuri demanded the producers, director and artists of the film be booked for allegedly promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion and outraging religious feelings of a community, among other offences.

‘PK’, which also stars Anushka Sharma among others, hit the theatres on December 19 and earned Rs 116 crore as box office collections over the first four days.
