Rajkumar Rao director Hansal Mehta shares a circular by the Committee on Road Safety on scenes in films that violate traffic guidelines. The circular says:
Dear Members,
This is with regard to the meeting called by the Committee on Road
Safety, constituted by the Supreme Court of India with the various
bodies representing Films and Television industry and Director (Films),
Ministry of Information & Broadcasting on Road Safety issues and
initiatives to educate public.
During the said meeting it was decided that the all Producer bodies
shall request their respective members to exercise caution wherever
possible while depicting rash, negligence and dangerous driving scenes
in films and television shows and if such scenes need to depicted as
integral part of the story/film scenes, then the producers of those
films and television shows should be informed to voluntarily put a
disclaimer only in the beginning of the film or television show that
performing such scenes by the audience may violate traffic laws/rules
hence should not be emulated
We would request your cooperation in this matter
Kind Regards.
