Justice P V Kunhikrishnan while dismissing the petition said people should comment about a film only after watching it and similarly, comments about a judgement should be made, especially by lawyers, only after reading it.
The plea had been moved by a lawyer, Peggy Fen, contending that there was an ”overdose of foul language” in the film and therefore, it should be removed from the OTT platform ”as expeditiously as possible”.
On a previous date of hearing, the court had termed as ”atrocious” the language used in the film which was released via Sony LIV on November 19 last year. The petition had contended that the film ”uses filthy words lavishly without any curtain which outrages the modesty of women and children”.
