Last month, a film delegation's meeting with PM Modi was criticised strongly over the exclusion of women from the panel, which included names like Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn, filmmakers Karan Johar, Siddharth Roy Kapur, Ritesh Sidhwani and Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) chief Prasoon Joshi.
