XXX series: You are polluting minds of young generation of this country, SC slams Ekta Kapoor

The Supreme Court Friday came down heavily on producer Ekta Kapoor over "objectionable content" in her web series  'XXX', saying she was polluting the minds of the young generation of this country. The top court was hearing a plea filed by Kapoor challenging the arrest warrants issued against her for allegedly insulting soldiers and hurting the sentiments of their families in the web series aired on her OTT platform ALTBalaji.

"Something has to be done. You are polluting the minds of the young generation of this country. It is



available to all. OTT (Over The Top) content is available to all. What kind of choice are you providing to the people? On the contrary, you are polluting the minds of youngsters," a bench of Justices Ajay Rastogi and C T Ravikumar said.

The court made the observation after senior advocate Mukul Rohatgi, appearing for Kapoor, submitted that a petition has been filed before the Patna high court but there is no hope the matter will be listed for hearing soon. He said the top court had earlier granted protection to Kapoor in a similar matter.
