Family of Major Sharma Seeks Clarification on Film Dhurandhar
Major Mohit Sharma's family is upset because they think a new movie called Dhurandhar is about their son, who was a brave soldier.
The family says the movie shows things that should be kept secret for national security and that they were not asked for permission.
The family went to court to stop the movie from being released.
The court said the people who decide if movies can be shown should listen to the family's concerns.
The movie's makers say it's not a true story about Major Sharma, but the family wants the truth to be told.
The family just wants the movie makers to say if the movie is about their son or not.
They are not asking for any special treatment, just the truth.
Major Mohit Sharma's family claims the film Dhurandhar is based on his life without their consent.
The Delhi High Court directed the CBFC to consider the family's objections before certifying the film.
The family seeks a stay on the film's release, citing privacy and national security concerns.
The producers claim the film is a work of fiction and not a biopic of Major Sharma.
The court has not granted a stay but has asked the CBFC to expedite the certification process.
