Gandhi

Jinnah, my brother.
Indian Muslims are all converts.
Weren't we all Hindus in the beginning?
Our DNA is the same.

No, Mr. Gandhi... Hindus and Muslims are not one.
You believe in the Vedas, and we believe in the Koran.
You believe in millions of Gods.
We believe only in Allah.

No matter how many FIRs are filed, I will ensure this film reaches the people. I am as much Bengali as anyone else, and I will fight for this truth to be known.
- Vivek Agnihotri quoted in [1]

Vivek Agnihotri is doing drama. As a filmmaker, what he makes is politically motivated and intended to divide people. Why hasn’t he made The Gujarat Files, highlighting the riots and the story of Bilkis Bano? Why no UP Files, MP Files or Manipur Files? He has come to Bengal only to serve the BJP’s agenda and malign the state. He should be declared persona non grata and evicted from Bengal. That’s not being done only because this is a democratic state.
- Kunal Ghosh. quoted in [2]

The film is not being allowed to release in the State of West Bengal. Though not officially banned, the film has been subjected to indirect restrictions that have denied the public its rightful opportunity to view it. The producers and distributors are facing intimidation and obstacles, while the State Government has failed to ensure the basic safety and law and order environment necessary for the free and fair release of the film (sic).
