‘Ghooskhor Pandat’ not about any caste or community, will take down all promos: Neeraj Pandey

MUMBAI: (Feb 6) The story of “Ghooskhor Pandat” is fictional and has nothing to do with any caste or community, filmmaker Neeraj Pandey said on Friday, a day after the Netflix film faced backlash over its title.

In a statement, posted on his social media handles, Pandey acknowledged that the film’s title has “hurt” a section of audience and added that all promotional materials of the film will be taken down for the time being.

The film’s announcement earlier this week was met with a backlash over the title with many social media users calling it insensitive and offensive.
