Ali Abbas Zafar’s digital debut Tandav web series on Amazon Prime aired on 15 January 2021 (Zafar 2021) got engulfed in controversy for hurting the religious sentiments of Hindus and for derogatory caste-based remarks. Amazon Prime apologized unconditionally to its viewers for hurting public sentiments following 10 FIRs against Tandav (2021) for scenes that portrayed Hindu Gods in poor light and caste references (“Amazon Prime Apologises for Tandav: We Respect Our Viewers’ Diverse Beliefs and Apologise Unconditionally” 2021). The apology came after the Allahabad High Court refused the anticipatory bail plea to Aparna Purohit, the India content chief of Amazon Prime. Ali Abbas Zafar reiterated that the objectionable scenes were edited and removed from the series, as they respected the beliefs, religion, and values of all Indians. Yet, people could access the deleted scenes on social media (Movieflicks 2021). Many people who did not know about the web series logged on to YouTube and Instagram to see the deleted scenes and posted their comments. People compared the tolerance of respective religious groups in response to controversial media content. Virtual groups and communities on social media got created, in which people bitterly fought for their respective faiths. Tandav (Zafar 2021) was just another of the dozens of controversial media content that fueled the country’s debate on communal politics and witnessed protests and public disharmony. The web series is the latest, and perhaps one of the first OTT web streamed series to be caught in a controversy over inappropriate religious content and showing a Hindu God swearing on screen. Indian cinema has come a long way since
Ali Abbas Zafar于2021年1月15日在亚马逊Prime上播出的数字首秀Tandav网络连续剧(Zafar 2021)因伤害印度教徒的宗教情绪和基于种姓的贬损言论而陷入争议。亚马逊Prime无条件地向观众道歉,因为10起针对Tandav(2021)的FIRs在光线不佳和种姓参考的情况下描绘印度教神的场景伤害了公众情绪(“亚马逊Prime为Tandav道歉:我们尊重观众的多样信仰,无条件地道歉”2021)。此前,阿拉哈巴德高等法院拒绝了亚马逊Prime印度内容主管Apana Purohit的预期保释请求。阿里·阿巴斯·扎法尔重申,这些令人反感的场景被编辑并从该系列中删除,因为它们尊重所有印度人的信仰、宗教和价值观。然而,人们可以在社交媒体上访问被删除的场景(Movieflicks 2021)。许多不知道这部网络连续剧的人登录YouTube和Instagram查看被删除的场景,并发表评论。人们比较了各自宗教团体对有争议的媒体内容的容忍度。社交媒体上的虚拟团体和社区应运而生,人们在其中为各自的信仰进行激烈的斗争。Tandav(Zafar 2021)只是数十个有争议的媒体内容中的另一个,这些内容引发了该国关于社区政治的辩论,并见证了抗议和公众不和谐。这部网络连续剧是最新的,也许也是第一部因不恰当的宗教内容和印度教上帝在屏幕上咒骂而陷入争议的OTT网络流媒体连续剧之一。自那以后,印度电影已经走过了漫长的道路
