Chiranjeevi starrer Acharya and Rana’s Virata Parvam have come under the scanner for their content. The movies which are set to release soon have attracted criticism for glorifying naxalism in them. Post the recent attacks on CRPF personnel in Chattisgarh, which saw 22 jawans martyred, these movies have come under quite a lot of scrutiny for their plot.
Virata Parvam starts Rana in the role of a naxalite. Similarly, Acharya has both Megastar Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan donning the naxal gear. This depiction has come under question from the Anti Terrorism Organisation. The organization has questioned the intent of the films. Additionally, it has also requested the CBFC to not issue certification to these films in a detailed letter.
While these movies are indeed releasing right after the dastardly naxal attack, it remains to be seen if the authorities take any cognisance and act on the complaints.
