Madhya Pradesh home minister Narottam Mishra on 19th January said that a case would be registered against the producer, director and actors of web series Tandav for hurting the religious sentiments of Hindus and using derogatory language against some individuals. He also said that the web series might be banned in the state.
Mishra said that the M.P. government would urge the Centre to come out with a policy on web shows. He named producer-director Ali Abbas Zafar and actors Saif Ali Khan and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub in particular and added that he condemned the way they had commented on Hindu religion in the web series.
