CBFC asks Union Minister Suresh Gopi's JSK - Janaki vs State of Kerala makers to change title over Goddess Sita's name

Industry sources said the release of the Suresh Gopi-starrer Malayalam movie JSK-Janaki vs. State of Kerala has hit a hurdle. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) reportedly denied it screening permission over the name of the title character. The Pravin Narayanan-directed movie, with Union Minister Suresh Gopi and Anupama Parameswaran in lead roles, reportedly revolves around the legal battle of an assaulted woman named Janaki against the state. Anupama Parameswaran and Suresh Gopi in a still from JSK - Janaki vs State of Kerala. According to sources, the film was reportedly denied screening clearance, citing that Janaki, an alternative name of Goddess Sita, cannot be used for such a character. Pravin, in a Facebook post, confirmed on Saturday that the Censor Board has denied screening permission for the movie. He said in the post, without elaborating, that there would be no release on 27 June. Meanwhile, noted director B Unnikrishnan, the general secretary of the Film Employees Federation of Kerala (FEFKA), on Sunday told reporters that the makers of the JSK were clearly informed by the CBFC that the name Janaki cannot be used in the movie. "They have not received any written information in this regard. A show-cause notice is yet to be received. They expect to get it by Monday," he told reporters in Kochi. The CBFC clearly stated to the film's crew that the name Sita cannot be used either in the title or for the character in the movie, Unnikrishnan said. "The story is about the legal fight carried out by an assaulted woman against the state. It is said (by the Board) that Goddess Sita's name cannot be given to the woman character who suffered assault," he said. Another filmmaker faced similar issue He said another Malayalam filmmaker recently faced a similar issue over the name of a character called Janaki in his movie, and he was forced to change it to Jayanthi to get Censor Board certification. Terming the Board's action as "strange", the FEFKA secretary asked where the country is heading. He said filmmakers are even denied the freedom to give the characters in their films the names of their choice. The director also said that in this circumstance, it would be tough to choose a name for characters belonging to the Hindu religion, as the majority of them would be epithets of Gods or Goddesses. Union Minister Suresh Gopi and the makers of the film were immediately not available for a comment.

The Waterfront: Everything About Buckley Family and Their Fishing, Restaurant Business in Eight-Part Thriller

Netflix's The Waterfront is the latest American drama series getting attention from fans of family thrillers like Ransom Canyon. The eight-episode show, created by Kevin Williamson and inspired by real events, dives into the complicated lives of the Buckley family. Set in the fictional coastal town of Havenport, North Carolina, the series focuses on a once-thriving fishing and restaurant business that slowly starts to fall apart, leading to secrets, betrayal, and high-stakes decisions. At the heart of The Waterfront is the Buckley family. Harlan Buckley, the patriarch, runs the family business with his wife Belle. Together, they have two children: Cane and Bree. Harlan also has a son from a previous relationship, Shawn West, making him Cane and Bree's half-brother. A fishing and restaurant empire on the edge The Buckleys own a major fishing operation and a local restaurant, which are central to the town's economy. However, as profits drop, the family is forced to make desperate choices to keep their reputation intact. The drama escalates when illegal activities and shady decisions start to affect not just the business, but also their family bonds. Each member has something to lose, and they're willing to do whatever it takes to stay afloat. Cane Buckley, the son of Harlan and Belle, is married to Peyton and has a daughter named Savannah. His sister Bree was married to Rodney Hopkins, and they share a son, Diller. Meanwhile, Shawn West, Harlan's son from another relationship with a woman named Bebe, is the half-brother to Cane and Bree. The cousins, Diller and Savannah, often get caught in the middle of the family chaos. With all generations involved, parents, children, and even grandchildren, the story shows how one family's decisions ripple through everyone's lives. The family's tight grip on their public image contrasts with the private drama that unfolds in every episode.
