PEHREDAAR PIYA KI: Smriti Irani wants IMMEDIATE ACTION on the show

Will Tejasswi Prakash's show 'Pehredaar Piya Ki' get banned?

New Delhi: A girl aged 18 married to a nine-year-old boy having her 'suhag raat' and even enjoying a honeymoon may sound cringe-worthy and regressive to many, but TV actress Tejaswi Prakash does not see anything wrong with the storyline of her Hindi television show "Pehredaar Piya Ki".Tejasswi  Prakash and Afaan Khan play the lead role in the show. She says it's "progressive" content. An online petition has been moved for a ban on the TV show, which has been described as "obnoxious and perverted" content that can "severely impact impressionable minds of children".

"Pehredaar Piya Ki", which means "guardian of the lover" raised a lot of eyebrows with its launch last month. After Tejasswi, Producer of the show Shashi Mittal, has responded to the petition. While talking to Bollywoodlife.com, she said, "Sorry, I would not like to comment on this right now. We will definitely put our point across but in a while.” Well, Sony Entertainment Television’s show ‘Pehredaar Piya Ki’ is now in serious trouble now. I&B Minister Smriti Irani has now decided to take action against the show. According to news in Spotboye, “She has written to the BCCC (Broadcasting Content Complaints Council- the self-regulatory mechanism for GEC content) to take up the matter.Sources close to the government say that a letter to this effect has been been dispatched, asking for immediate action on priority basis.The BCCC will now have to take cognisance, respond and take action.
