Ludhiana, Feb 4: Activists of a little known Hindu outfit Wednesday held a demonstration outside a multiplex here screening adult comedy film “Mastizaade”.
The protest, however, was called off after authorities volunteered to delete the scenes that were deemed “objectionable” by the outfit, police said.
The protesters tried to force their entry into the multiplex but were stopped by the security personnel of the commercial establishment.
Police claimed the timely arrival of its personnel at the venue averted a clash between the protesters and the private security.
The protesters were demanding removal of certain scenes from the movie, a spokesman for the organisation told reporters.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Narinder Bhargava said the protesters left the premises after the cinema management assured the scenes they had objected to will be deleted.
No case has been registered by the police in this connection.
