Amol Palekar Calls Out Censorship At Mumbai Event, Opposition Joins In | Read

Freedom of speech or the right to communicate without any fear of censorship was once again brought under the spotlight after noted Hindi and Marathi actor-filmmaker Amol Palekar was repeatedly interrupted and "requested" to stick to the topic at an art event in Mumbai. The organisers, however, said that they didn't intend to curb his freedom of speech and they only wanted the focus to stay on the artist. An upset Mr Palekar addressed the media today along with his wife Sandhya Gokhale who he said was witness to the "censorship" he faced on Friday.
