HC orders makers to add two disclaimers in actor’s Jayeshbhai Jordaar amid sex-determination argument

More disclaimers for Ranveer Singh’s film 'Jayeshbhai Jordaar'

Ranveer Singh

The Delhi High Court allowed the release of Ranveer Singh-starrer Jayeshbhai Jordaar with new disclaimers added to it, because it showed the use of ultrasound technology for gender determination in certain scenes.


The bench, comprising Acting Chief Justice Vipin Sanghi and Justice Navin Chawla was hearing a public interest litigation (PIL) by an NGO Youth Against Crime, filed through Advocate Pawan Prakash Pathak. Though the film promotes the ‘Save Girl Child’ slogan and is against female foeticide, the trailer advertises the use of ultrasound technique, as per the petitioner.


The plea said: “The ultrasound clinic scene, where the technology of ultrasound for sex determination is being advertised openly without censor and as per section 3, 3A, 3B, 4, 6 and 22 of the PC and PNDT Act, same is not allowed and hence the instant PIL.” After a detailed hearing of the matter, the bench said: “We appreciate the message but you have to tell people that it is an offence.”


“The learned senior counsel, without prejudice to his submissions, has agreed to depict a further static warning or disclaimer during the running of both the scenes. The senior counsel submits that similar warning or disclaimer will be depicted on all formats in the trailer and on YouTube.”

In the order, the court told the producers of the film to ensure the disclaimers appear twice in the film. Apart from Singh, Jayeshbhai Jordaar also features Shalini Pandey and Ratna Pathak Shah.
