Days after the Internet got furious over Oppenheimer featuring a s*x scene between Cillian Murphy and Florence Pugh as she asks him to recite the Bhagavad Gita, it is now Union Minister of Information and Broadcasting Anurag Thakur who has raised objections on the controversial scene. Mr Thakur, as per the reports, lashed out at the officials at the Central Board of Film Certification for approving the scene. Scroll down to read the details.

Oppenheimer is performing exceptionally well at the domestic box-office and has crossed Rs. 50 Crore In India. Christopher Nolan’s directorial has been facing the heat ever since the news of Cillian Murphy’s character reading the Bhagavad Gita during a steamy scene came out.

According to NDTV, action could be taken against Central Board of Film Certification officials. Sources have revealed that Mr Thakur is upset at the authority over “objectionable” scenes in the movie between Cillian Murphy and Florence Pugh. He has questioned them over how the scene could be passed when it featured the Bhagavad Gita, which is a sacred Hindu religious text. If reports are to be believed, Mr Thakur might soon take action against some of the officials who are responsible for it. Apart from Mr Thakur, Uday Mahurkar, Information Commissioner with the Government of India, recently slammed the film over the same. While sharing a press release by the ‘Save Culture Save India Foundation’, on social media, he asserted, “One is perplexed as to how the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) could approve the film with this scene.”
