Jammu: Jammu court on Thursday passed an interim order restraining makers of the movie ‘The Kashmir Files’ from showing scenes depicting late Squadron Leader Ravi Khanna in the movie.
Shalini Khanna, the wife of Squadron Leader Ravi Khanna, had attended the special premiere of The Kashmir Files on March 4.
However, after watching the film, she claimed that one of the scenes featuring her husband, has been wrongly depicted in the film. She further said that she raised an objection soon after the premiere while speaking on the stage, but the makers didn’t pay heed, India Today reported.
