The Division Bench of N.R.

According to him, the film portrayed lives of married Muslim women to have no independent rights as individuals in society owing to &#8220;Aayat 223&#8221;, a verse in the Quran which in his view was entirely wrong and a misreading of the verse. He submitted that despite the modifications directed to be carried out prior to the film&#8217;s release, the trailer did not contain any disclaimer nor any reference to the certification granted by CBFC. He further claimed that a public exhibition of the film would hurt the sentiments of the Muslims and might create hatred in the society.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The respondents claimed that the objectionable scenes and dialogues were deleted, and the film had then been certified. They also stated that the trailer mentioned by the petitioner, which was released on YouTube and Book My Show, was not a certified trailer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court observed that a prima facie case was made out by the petitioner but the issue of locus of the petitioner would have to be decided.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court ordered that the respondents were restrained from exhibiting, circulating, or making available for viewership to the public the film on any public forum\/platform till 14-06-2024.
