Nora Fatehi Appears Before NCW for 'Sarke Chunar' Row, Apologises

NCW said the song appears sexually suggestive and objectionable as Nora Fatehi is summoned to the hearing.

  • On Thursday, May 7, actress Nora Fatehi is set to appear before the National Commission for Women at 11:30 A.M. regarding the controversy surrounding the song 'Sarke Chunar'.
  • In March, the NCW issued summons to Fatehi, actor Sanjay Dutt, Raqueeb Alam, producer Venkat, and director Kiran Kumar following allegations of "obscenity" and "vulgarity" in the track.
  • Citing potential violations of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, the IT Act, and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, the Commission stated the content "appears to be sexually suggestive and objectionable."
  • Following widespread criticism that lyrics and visuals objectified women, the Union government banned the song 'Sarke Chunari' after formal complaints demanded its removal from circulation.
  • Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw addressed the controversy in the Lok Sabha, responding to questions raised by Samajwadi Party MP Anand Bhadouria.
