Blog: I Say Let 'Em Kiss! 
By IndiaFM News Bureau, December 13, 2006 - 09:59 IST
A kissing scene from a movie starring Bollywood actors Aishwarya Rai and Hrithik Roshan has irked a lawyer who has filed a
criminal case against them, accusing them of obscenity, he said on Sunday.
Shailendra Dwivedi of Indore, near Bhopal, the capital of central Madhya Pradesh state, said the scene from the movie, titled
"Dhoom 2," lowered the dignity of Indian women and gave an obscene message to youth.
"Bollywood actors are conveying vulgarity in the society," Dwivedi told Reuters. "These films cannot be watched with our families,
they are so vulgar at times."
A local court accepted Dwivedi's petition to punish the actors and said it would hear the petitioner on December 11.
The Indian censor board, which certifies all films, released the movie with a "parental discretion" certificate.
A majority of Indians frown upon intimacy in public.
First of all, both of them are very pretty people.
Actually, she's not that bad either.
Secondly, a kiss is just a kiss. It's time to step away from the conservative values and let people live a little. Let's stop oppressing
people for foolish things and just enjoy life! I hope they don't take this lying down either because if folks were mad about a kiss, I'd
hate to see what they'd do about the horizontal mambo.
