The Kerala High Court has questioned the CBFC’s demand to alter the Malayalam film ‘JSK’s title and lead character’s name, Janaki, despite clearing the teaser earlier. The court has sought a detailed explanation from the Deputy Solicitor General of India by July 2. Film bodies are protesting the CBFC’s decision, calling it a threat to creative freedom, as the makers refuse to rename the film or its characters.
