Mumbai: Angered by a poster of Karan Johar's latest production "Kurbaan", where actor Kareena Kapoor is shown flashing her bare back, Shiv Sena workers tied a saree around one such poster in suburban Juhu.
Women Shiv Sena members, led by area Vibhagpramukh Jitendra Janawale, tied a saree around the poster of Kareena, who is shown holding a bare-chested Saif Ali Khan, her real-life boyfriend, in the image.
"How are such obscene posters being allowed by the authorities," Janawale asked. "Several women and children pass by the posters. What effect will it have on them," he said.
"We will soon visit Kareena's residence and present her a saree," he said.
The movie, starring Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor and Vivek Oberoi, is slated for release later this month. It is directed by Rensil D'Silva and is a romance set against the backdrop of terrorism.
The film, which is already in news for a steamy love scene between Kareena and Saif was previously titled "Jehad". It has been shot in Philadelphia, Delhi and Mumbai.

i agree this film was for
i agree this film was for mature audience. that doesn't mean it's ok to show these kind of intimate scenes on posters in public all around the country. everybody will see it, including children and teenagers. it's not as if they could decide, oh it's mature, so we should view it differently when it's right infront of their faces.
Wed, 2009-11-18 21:48. there
Wed, 2009-11-18 21:48. there is a reason for the semi-nude poster! its not just to skin it's showing the maturity of the film which immature people like many of you will not undestand.
bollywood should stop
bollywood should stop copying hollywood. even if it's 21st century, how is it progression to show half-nude posters around the country. it's more like going back in a circle to cave people. it's sad these actors give more importance to money than self-respect.
india is a little bit
india is a little bit culturally different than the west. although the shiv sena may be hypocrites...lots of middle class ppl probably do talk about these things at home , no one voices their opinions anyways.
its bold of her to do that
its bold of her to do that considering she is a "kapoor girl" prithviraj kapoor would have had a heart attack to see her on the poster like that lol.
Shiv Sena are a bunch of
Shiv Sena are a bunch of lunatics. Having said that Kurbaan poster is provocative. No matter how the world is changing the fact of the matter is we are a conservative society. I don't understand what is so wrong in accepting that. When I look at this poster, classy dosen't come to my mind, maybe because those horrendous images of her from her last film "kambakht Ishq" are still quiet fresh in my mind.

Tue, 2009-11-17 16:02. i disagree if rape and suffering is happening towards women then it is not women like kareena who are responsible. it is MEN themselves. a woman doesn't rape another woman. instead of women being told to keep their clothes on for the sake of 'modesty' men should be taught not to rape or make women suffer. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!! IT IS NOT NUDITY OR SEX FROM CELEBS RESPONSIBLE FOR RAPE AND SUFFER IT IS "MEN" who believe God has given them all rights to treat women as lower class citizens. i say hats off to Kareena for showing the world women can and should be able to dress how they feel even if it's nude. after all we weren't born with clothes were we

I love what kareena said
I love what kareena said about this...she asked the shiv sena's to present her with a beautiful sareee...
Cant belive they did this!
why shiv sena, the entaire
why shiv sena, the entaire country should ban this movie. vulgar.
such movies bring more problem, more crime. More women and children suffer, rape/murder increase ten fold. who is responsible for such action. people do copy the movie and learn few things. sex movies sell and there is a huge audiance for such movie. Irresponsible bimbo and her royal prince don't realise.
i can't help but feel sorry
i can't help but feel sorry for these f'ing hypocrites! As tho the religious tensions created by such idiotic parties rn't enuff..they go ahd n literally beat women on valentine's day in b'lore...n keep nit picking on such idiotic trivial matters! I wish i cud squish'em n end all the discriminations (gender/social/religious) these a**-****s r creating in our already troubled society..such political parties n clicks shud b legally banned!
This is all for attention
This is all for attention for the their "shiv sena" party. GOd damn idiots...I am so sick of Bal thackery's tactics...this is sickening. Kareena keep up the good work!!! shiv sena should stop trying to take women back 200 years. They really dont give a fluke about ethical or societal issues, religion, or hunger...they want votes from the public and want to be in the public eye for any reason they can be. SO they pick on the most popular thing to create a media frenzy.
this is really foolish...so
this is really foolish...so many actresses have exposed their bare back in movies...bipasha in ajnabee, and katrina did something in Boom and is now admired by all the women in shiv sena, and what about the bikinis that actresses wear in movies....seriously why only attack one poster? and what's that with sending a saree to kareena's home? they should send it to every actress then.
