Counsel for the petitioner: The movie is allegedly based on Ramayan. The movie trailer is hurting Hindu sentiments as the way Lord Hanuman is represented in the movie is very ugly. No where in the Ramayan, Lord Ram has been romanticised, however the movie depicts this.

Justice Sinha: If you are aggrieved by the same why don't you approach the Censor board. These days attempts are made to incite people over petty issues.

Counsel for the petitioner: My Lord, the Board is required to follow the guidelines issued by the Central Government vide notification dt. 6 December 1991 and to ensure that no certificate is granted unless the film fulfils the criteria laid down therein. We are before the court

Court: Ok, we will see it first and will take a call on it later.
