HJS delegation meets Mr. Vishnu Wagh, VP, Goa Entertainment Institute in connection with anti-Hindu films

Panaji (Goa) : Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS)  has a complaint that there is desecration of Bhagavan Sri Datta in a song from Marathi film ‘Deool’ and it has lodged a complaint with the Central Officers of International Film Festival of India (IFFI). HJS has also demanded that film star Akshay Kumar, the producer of Hindi film titled ‘O My God’ should not be invited for inauguration of the film festival. Mr. Vishnu Wagh, the Vice President (VP) of Goa Entertainment Institute met a delegation led by HJS on Friday in this regard. Mr. Wagh promised that he would arrange for a meeting between HJS and central officers from IFFI. (When HJS is fighting for desecration of Hindu seats of worship, it is not expected of the Goa Govt. to just forward its complaint with some remark and arrange for a meeting with IFFI officers. The Govt. should take the matter seriously and see to it that Hindus seats of worship are not denigrated ! – Editor SP)  

Producer of Hindi film ‘O My God’ and actor Akshay Kumar has hurt religious sentiments of Hindus by making mockery; therefore, he should not be invited for the festival and film ‘Deool’ should not be screened at this year’s film festival, are the demands of HJS for which its delegation met Mr. Vishnu Wagh. The delegation comprised of Dr. Manoj Solanki, the Convenor of HJS for Goa, Mr. Sangam Borkar of Sanatan Sanstha, devout Hindu Mr. Shivaji Rane from Sakhali, HJS activists Mr. Tulshidas Ganjekar and Raj Borkar. Mr. Wagh said in this connection, “Decision about inviting Akshay Kumar can be taken only by the officers of the Film Festival. The representation by HJS has been forwarded to the Central Officers. When the officers come to Goa, we will arrange for a meeting of HJS with them regarding Akshay kumar.”  

Dr. Manoj Solanki of HJS explained to Mr. Vishnu Wagh about how films like ‘O My God’, ‘Student of the Year’ and ‘Shudra, the Rising’ have hurt religious sentiments of Hindus. He also requested MLA, Wagh to make a demand with the Central Censor Board for not granting permission/ license to such films.
