The Netflix movie “Gunjan Saxsena: The Kargil Girl” was released on Wednesday this week. The movie is based on the life of an IAF officer Gunjan Saxena who became the first woman pilot to take part in the 1999 Kargil war.
It has been centred around a lot of controversy due to the negative portrayal of IAF.
“The IAF has written a letter to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) objecting to certain scenes in the movie ‘Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl’ wherein it has been portrayed in undue negative light,” an official said.
The official said a copy of the letter has also been sent to Netflix.
Further he said, “Before the release of the film, the IAF had requested Dharma Productions to modify or delete the objectionable scenes. However, it did not take any action.”
According to the official, the letter mentions “concerns related to the movie’s portrayal of gender bias as an institutional work culture” at the IAF.
