A Christian group has now taken objection to the title of Kareena Kapoor’s new book and has filed a police complaint against the actress for 'hurting the religious sentiments' of the Christian community. 

Alpha Omega Christian Mahasangh president Ashish Shinde has written a formal complaint at Shivaji Nahar Police Station in Beed over the book which also has another author. 

In the complaint, Shinde mentioned the title of the book, Pregnancy Bible, which is written by Kareena Kapoor and Aditi Shah Bhimjani, and published by Juggernaut Books. 

The holy word ‘Bible’ is used in the book’s title and Shinde said it has hurt the religious sentiments of Christians. 

Now, he has filed a case under the IPC section 295-A (deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage reli­gious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or reli­gious beliefs) against Kareena Kapoor and the two others. 

A police official confirmed receiving a complaint about the same but an FIR hasn’t been filed yet. 

Shivaji Nagar Police Station in-charge Inspector Sainath Thombre told PTI, “We have received the complaint but no case can be registered here as the incident has not happened here (in Beed). I have advised him to file a complaint in Mumbai.”

Kareena launched her book on July 9. Calling the book her 'third child', the 40-year-old actress, who gave birth to her second child, a boy, in February this year, shared a series of posts to promote the book on social media.
