Demand for Legal Action
In the complaint, Pathak alleges that Khan referred to Holi as a “festival of chhapriyon”, a term widely considered offensive. Hindustani Bhau further stated that Khan’s comment deeply hurt his personal religious feelings and the sentiments of the wider Hindu community.
The complaint reads, “My client states that the accused has not only hurt my personal religious sentiments but has also disturbed the Hindu community at large. This incident involves Farah Khan, a prominent Bollywood filmmaker and choreographer, who recently made extremely offensive and objectionable remarks against the Hindu festival of Holi. Through this complaint, I seek justice.”
A case has been registered against Farah Khan under various sections of law. Farah Khan, a judge on Celebrity MasterChef, commented on the festival of Holi. She is facing continuous online trolling for this remark.
