LIVE | Ghooskhor Pandat Title Controversy: Neeraj Pandey Pulls Promos | To The Point | India Today
Neeraj Pandey has pulled the plug on all promotional material for his upcoming Netflix film ‘Ghooskhor Pandat’ starring Manoj Bajpayee, following intense backlash over the title. The filmmaker issued a clear statement on Friday, insisting the story is a purely fictional cop drama with no link to any caste, religion, or community. The term ‘Pandat’ is used only as a colloquial nickname for the corrupt officer character Ajay Dikshit, whose one-night plans unravel into a major global conspiracy in Delhi. Social media erupted after the film’s announcement, with many calling the title insensitive and offensive for allegedly linking corruption to a community identifier. Complaints led to an FIR in Lucknow, NHRC notice to the Ministry, and political reactions from UP leaders. Pandey acknowledged the hurt caused to a section of the audience and emphasized his responsibility to tell thoughtful, respectful stories. Manoj Bajpayee has also clarified the film focuses on an individual’s flaws, not any group. Is this a case of misunderstood intent or genuine concern over stereotypes? Watch this live special as we break down the controversy, the statements, and what it means for OTT content in India. Stay tuned for expert views and real-time updates. #GhooskhorPandat #NeerajPandey
