Bengal stars protest against withdrawal of film ‘Bhabisater Bhoot’

Bengal film stars gathered at Academy of Fine Arts near Rabindra Sadan in Kolkata to protest against the withdrawal of the film ‘Bhabisater Bhoot’, a Bengali movie based on political satire.
The removal of the film has created a major controversy in Kolkata which is known as culture capital of India.
Dadasaheb Phalke Award winner actor Ssaumitra Chatterjee criticised the move to withdraw the movie, as it is a curtailment on freedom.
Filmmaker Anik Dutta said that due to directives of the police the movie was removed from the theatres.
Film stars Saheb, Badshah, Barun Chanda and Sabyasachi Chakraborti criticised the move. They demanded that the state should ensure freedom of speech and expression.
