Porn ban: Kangana Ranaut, Imran Khan call it futile exercise
Bollywood stars Kangana
Ranaut and Imran Khan, who play the lead in Nikhil Advani’s upcoming romantic
comedy “Katti Batti”, say banning pornography was a “futile exercise at best”
as people who want to watch it will watch it.
Imran Khan, who will be
back on the silver screen after a long gap, chuckled at the situation this ban
will create.
“Banning pornography is a futile exercise at
best. It is not possible to ban porn. People, who want to watch it, will watch
it! Pretty soon, there will be a huge black market for it and people will be
selling it illegally. So you are creating new opportunities for new criminals,”
he said.
“Queen” actress Kangana
Ranaut, who is paired for the first time with Imran Khan, agreed with her
co-star.
“Each to his own, every
individual can take his own call and I agree with what Imran has to say,” said
Kangana.
Director Nikhil Advani
added: “I don’t think anything should be banned. It is a democratic society,
and I think people can take their own decision.
“Whether it is porn ban
or censorship, I can look after my own children, I can look after my own
family. I can tell them what is good or bad, so I don’t need the government to
tell me what to do.”
“Katti Batti” is
scheduled for release on September 18.
