In this episode of To The Point, the top focus is on the controversy over Diljit Dosanjh's 'Satluj', which was removed from OTT two days after its release. Based on the life of a human rights activist who documented alleged illegal cremations and disappearances during the Punjab insurgency in the 1990s, the film’s removal has triggered political debate. Critics argue the film lacks historical context and could incite public unrest, while supporters claim the removal stifles free speech and suppresses reports of state excesses. So, we raise these questions on the show: Why was Diljit Dosanjh's 'Satluj' takedown? Under what specific legal provision, statutory power, or written government order was 'Satluj' removed from streaming in India? Was the action taken under the IT rules, the IT Act, or any other legal framework? Can politically inconvenient storytelling find space in our country? Will a ban end up generating more interest in Satluj than it suppresses? Watch as panellists share their views on these and more on the show.
