The Madhya Pradesh High Court has sent Kareena Kapoor Khan a notice against the use of the word “Bible” in the title of her book, “Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Pregnancy Bible.” The Bollywood actress received a notice, as per NDTV, following the filing of a plea by an advocate called Christopher Anthony, who expressed objections to the book’s title and called for its prohibition.
The advocate claimed that the use of the word ‘Bible’ in Kareena’s book’s title is hurtful to the sentiments of the Christian community. He also accused the diva of trying to gain “cheap publicity” for her book by using the word Bible. “Bible is the holy book of Christianity all over the world and it is wrong to compare Kareena Kapoor Khan’s pregnancy with the Bible,” he said.
Justice Gurpal Singh Ahluwalia’s one-judge panel has sent Kareena Kapoor a notice. He has asked the actress to respond and give a justification for her choice of words for her book’s title. The notice has been sent to the book retailers in addition to Kareena.
According to reports, the advocate went to the police initially to lodge a formal complaint against the actress for her book, which came out in 2021. He did, however, go to the lower court after police authorities declined to file a formal complaint. The lower court dismissed his plea as well, finding that the advocate had not proven that the title’s usage of the word “Bible” was objectionable. Advocate Anthony then moved to the Additional Sessions Court, but even there, his petition was denied.
