Delhi HC refuses to stay release of Hansal Mehta’s film ‘Faraaz’

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court has refused to stay the release of Hansal Mehta’s film, “Faraaz”, which is scheduled to be released at theatres on Friday and said to be based on a 2016 terrorist attack in Dhaka. The court made it clear that the makers shall scrupulously adhere to a disclaimer that says the film is inspired by the attack and the elements contained in it are purely a work of fiction. The court was hearing a plea moved by the family members of the terror attack victims. The mothers of two victims of the Holey Artisan terrorist attack in Dhaka in Bangladesh had objected to the release of the film on February 3 on the ground of invasion of privacy. A bench of justices Siddharth Mridul and Talwant Singh granted time to the appellants’ counsel and listed it for hearing on February 22.
