Making the right amount of noise ever since its release, Ayushmann Khurrana starrer Article 15 has been receiving positive reviews from both critics and the audience.
The film has also faced backlash from various communities across the nation because of its anti-caste system stance. Recently, it was reported that the screening of this Anubhav Sinha directorial was stalled in Uttar Pradesh’s Kanpur.
The latest reports suggest that the screening of Article 15 has been banned in Uttarakhand’s Roorkee due to law and order concerns.
Said to be ‘based on true incidents’ Article 15 narrates the ordeal of a brutal gang-rape and murder of two girls belonging to a lower caste. The film points fingers at caste based discrimination which continues to exist in various parts of the country.
