More Webseries To Be Axed And Edited In Coming Weeks And Months?
Operation Cleanup has started  in right earnest on all the major streaming platforms with all references to religion politics and real-life characters wiped  out.

One major filmmaker who has been asked to clean up his  forthcoming series says, “You can’t even make a mythological  which at one time were considered the safest genre. Now anyone can raise an objection to anything to do with religion. So sorry, no mythological, no Ramayan, no Mahabharat, no  Bible or Quran either. The role model for a safe series on the Indian digital platform is the Disney products. Loads of children, harmless fun and adventure."

Filmmakers with political scripts have been given two options: change the name of the country or make something else. As for religion, you can’t  show any pictures of Gods or Goddesses in any frame lest  someone objects to the unacceptable placing of  a photo of a deity or even the exclamation, ‘Oh God’ could be damaging to a series, as you can’t take God’s name in vain.
