FIR Against “Annapoorani: The Goddess of Food” for Allegedly Promoting ‘Love Jihad’

Mumbai: The Mumbai police have filed a First Information Report (FIR) at the LT Marg police station against the Nayanthara starrer movie “Annapoorani: The Goddess of Food” for allegedly promoting ‘Love Jihad.’

The film is about Annapoorani, played by Nayanthara, who aspires to become a chef. As daughter of a priest, she breaks free from the bindings of her orthodox Hindu household to experiment with non-vegetarian dishes.

The film also shows the romance between Annapoorani and Farhaan, portrayed by Jai.

The FIR alleges that the film promotes ‘Love Jihad,’ and the Farhan character allegedly distorts the Ramayana by suggesting that Lord Rama, Lakshmana, and Mata Sita ate meat during their exile.

A scene in the film showing Nayanthara’s character performing the Namaz before cooking biryani has also been objected.

The FIR, filed under relevant sections of the law, awaits further investigation.
