Delhi High Court Declines PIL to Stay Release of Sunny Deol's Film 'Suryaa'
The Delhi High Court declined to entertain a Public Interest Litigation seeking to stay the release of Sunny Deol's film 'Suryaa: Ant Se Aarambh Tak,' scheduled for November 20, 2026. Petitioners, including doctors Nachiketa Bhatia and Dhruv Chauhan, objected to scenes in the film's trailer depicting violence against medical professionals as heroic and alleging widespread corruption in healthcare. The court noted a similar petition by the medical fraternity was pending before a single judge and allowed petitioners to join that case and pursue their concerns with authorities, including the Central Board of Film Certification.
