Bollywood stars Aishwarya Rai and Hrithik Roshan are facing criticism in India regarding their recent on-screen kiss in the action film Dhoom 2.
The Times of London reported that a criminal case has been filed against Rai and Roshan over the kiss.
Shailendra Dwivedi, a lawyer from Madhya Pradesh, filed the suit, accusing Rai and Roshen of lowering the quality of Indian women and encouraging obscenity among India's youth. Most Bollywood on-screen kisses, the Times reported, are sanitized pecks on the lips. Rai and Roshan's kiss was reportedly much more drawn out.
The Times reported that this latest incident comes on the heels of another public controversy involving a photograph of Vasundhara Raje, the woman chief minister of Rajasthan, air-kissing a woman at a World Economic Forum meeting.
Many in India are upset over what is being called the growing Westernization of Indian culture.

Guys, please try to comprehend that KISS and SEX is no wrong if it’s done in our private life. Things that have shown on MOVIE cause an impact only not to the adults but also to kids. You may not acknowledge or recognize it now until your child gets affected.
May God take care of those filthy actor & actress, grimy directors even who try to ruin the lives of people like us, cuz they (actor & actress and few in the film unit) do it for MONEY but never take the time to realize if their actions causes an IMPACT or NOT. MONEY plays the ROLE there!
After they die, will they take that money and go up. Even Alexander the great who conquered many things in life couldn’t take up anything with him. I wonder why they have such a craze and passion for money and whom are they planning to pass on it on when the same fate awaits for all.

Our culture is going in the toilet or certainly headed in that direction. Westernization & the influence of Western culture will do that to you.

Westerization
Kissing is against law in India? Then How did they end up with over a billion people? No wonder these repressed people dont use condemns.Kissing is evil, but apparently having sex with everything that moves has always been in Indian culture.

kissing is not a sin. just bc its not the norm for television and movies in india doesnt mean its wrong. Kissing has nothing to do with the indian culture. for god sake its only a MOVIE. Where are all you people who apose this, doing about the kissing thats done off screen for the wrong reasons. wake up and live in the 21st century....although i have to say the kissing scene between ash and rit was nasty. there is nothing wrong with kissing on screen. infect that kiss was soo nasty, they need to pratice more...

Kiss-against the culture but the clothes the actors wear-Very much in the culture?
I am surprised how people act the way they do.Kissing is immoral!! This is ofcourse not the first movie with such a scene.What happened to movies like Murder or movies in which actresses wear almost no clothes and dance in bikinis...I wonder if that is quite consistent with our culture....!!Standards should be applied uniformly across.In any case, could some one define what is India's culture? I am sure 'not kissing' is not one of them.

kissing in the movie
It is strange that Hritik and Ash are ostracized for kissing on the screen. Also it is not new that Bollywood is the sinful element that produses greed, lust, hate and violence in the movies, mixed with exposure of women in swim suits and short skirts, that reveal their underwears should not be appalling to the hindu society. No one has really opposed them, and now it is too late. By the way, what has happened to women’s respect for themselves, no they have become slaves to money. Pretty Zinta, Bipasha Basu,Celina Jaitley, Pryanka Chopra, Rani Mukherjee have done immoral things in movies. Why file a suit against poor Aish. You have more than 20,000, 000 suffering AIDS.there are endless amount of prostitution and millions of indian women in X-RATED movies. Also, check the INTERNET to see endless pictures of naked Indian women, both Muslims and Hindus. Only, now you talk about a demoralising Indin culture. Bollywood is your sin. man. the evil empire.
