Nirbhaya film: Is banning it the answer?
The government goes on the offensive against the documentary film on Nirbhaya and gets a restraining order. It even says it will not allow the broadcast in other countries. A senior minister says the film is a conspiracy to defame India. Has this film defamed India or the horrific violence against women shamed us? You may disagree with the content, but is banning it the answer? The filmmaker at the heart of the storm, Leslee Udwin, joins us.
Appeal to PM Modi to watch India's Daughter, says filmmaker after ban
Filmmaker Leslee Udwin makes an appeal to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, asking him to watch the documentary and not let the issue get out of hand. She says her film has not defamed India, but that the world would point fingers at India for censoring the film.
