The goddess was "painted by disrespect", and the Indians were angry

A movie poster recently set off a huge wave in India. According to the Hindu Times reported on the 9th, the country's emerging director Lina Manimkari recently released a poster of his new film "Gayi" on Twitter. The clouds spit the clouds and held high the rainbow flag symbolizing a small number of groups, and were considered "seriously hurt the religious feelings of Hinduism."

Carthage is the transliteration of the mother of the Hindu goddess. She is one of the incarnations of the wives of the wives of the wives of Shiva. She symbolizes strong and freshmen. She enjoys a lofty status in the minds of Hinduists. Below Manimkari's tweets, thousands of anger accusations from Hindus, and many people initiated her death threat to her. The Police of the Northern Indian Northern Pradesh had filed a case, and believed that the poster works published in Manimka made "disrespectful depictions" for the goddess of Hinduism. Because "Gay" was ready to launch at a film exhibition event in Canada, the Indian Embassy in Canada issued a meeting to the event organization, strongly demanding the withdrawal of the "provocative poster", and said that he received a large number of complaints from the local Hindu community.

Manimkari responded that the reason why Gaoli was portrayed as a poster was mainly "to express the embrace of human and diversity." But India did not justify it, and many people thought she should be arrested or even sent to prison. A spokesman for the Indian People's Party stated that the move hurts the "emotions of Indians around the world" and asked the government to take action and try to delete this tweet.

In India, whether it is domestic or abroad, movies and products, such as "exaggerated" portraits of religious characters, have always been considered a sensitive issue and often attract a lot of attention. In 2015, the Indian Central Film Certification Commission requested 16 editing 16 times on the Bollywood film "Angry Indian Goddess", which is also the protagonist of the film.

India's "First Post" believes that since the 1970s, Hindu's Brahmin (the highest -level surname) and the wealthy class have gradually been affixed with "scammers", "rapist", "rivers and lakes liar" in Bollywood movies. Tags, while some religious faiths are regarded as "savior". At this point of view, Hindus began to question and resist this "insult", but this may cause India to fall into the abyss and division of religious hatred and prejudice.
