    While cinema has evolved with time  and controversial topics are easily accepted today, one can only imagine  the ordeal of a filmmaker who wanted to narrate his tale back in the 70s or the 80s. That golden period gave us some great action and romance, but here are three controversial movies which stood the test of time and stirred up quite a storm:

    1. Aandhi- Just like its name, this political drama stirred up a storm in the nation. The plot follows a female political leader who shared an uncanny resemblance to former PM, Indira Gandhi.  The films explored various topics like her estranged relationship with her husband as well. While the makers maintained that they had just copied her look and rest was fiction, they had to remove and edit a lot of things after it didn’t go down well with the supporters of a political party.  Certain scenes like the political leader shows smoking and drinking in the middle of an election campaign and in fact the film faced a complete ban during the national Emergency.

    2. Kissa kursi ka – This movie was helmed by MP Amrit Nahata and was basically a full blown satire on PM Indira Gandhi and her politician son Sanjay Gandhi. The movie was banned during the Emergency and the prints were also destroyed after being confisticated.  The movie starred Shabana Azmi and Utpal Dutt.
     
    3. Garm hawa-  Another movie which ruffled the feathers of controversy in the country was based on a story written by celebrated Urdu writer Ismat Chughtai. The backdrop is the 1947 independence period and this movie tells a deep tale of a Muslim man who is in an emotional battle of heart and mind about leaving his homeland in India and moving to Pakistan with his family. The movie realistically captures the religious angst and was put on hold as communal violence was perceived to be one its repercussions.

    Speaking about the release date in an official statement, T-Series head-honcho Bhusan Kumar said, "Bull is an ambitious project and one the biggest action movies coming out of T-Series stable, we continue to reassure audience's long standing romance with the silver screen with this release. It is a Shahid Kapoor film tailor-made to be viewed at your nearest theatre". 

    Plot:  Inspired by the real events from Brigadier Bulsara’s life, Bull is a full-blown action film that is set in the 1980s. Shahid will be seen essaying the role of a paratrooper who leads his team through a selfless and historic mission that is now considered iconic for the bravado and precision. As per the makers, the theme will resonate with viewers all over India.  
    Production:  Directed by debutant Aditya Nimbalkar, who has worked extensively with filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, Bull is slated to go on floors in early 2022. The makers will start principal photography next year. Along with Bhushan Kumar, Garima Mehta and Amar Butala are also bankrolling the project. Both the production houses, T-series and Guilty By Association (GBA), have teamed up for the very first time to produce the actioner. Its screenplay has been penned by Parveez Shaikh and Aseem Arrora.
    Cast:Apart from Shahid, the makers are yet to announce the names of other actors who’ll be a part of the action extravaganza.
