Congress Roasted Over Free Speech After Indu Sarkar Event In Pune Mobbed

A promotional event for the film Indu Sarkar had to be cancelled in Pune today after local Congress workers barged into the hotel in which the filmmakers were staying and protested against the movie which is set in the backdrop of the Emergency and has characters inspired by former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and her son Sanjay Gandhi. After constant disruptions, the film's director Madhur Bhandarkar said it was "baffling to see self-proclaimed custodians of freedom of expression creating huge ruckus."
