thebalanced.newsNora Fatehi to Appear Before NCW Over 'Sarke Chunar' Song Controversy
Actor Nora Fatehi is scheduled to appear before the National Commission for Women (NCW) on May 7 regarding concerns over the song "Sarke Chunar" from the film "KD The Devil," which has faced criticism for alleged vulgarity and indecent portrayal of women. Fatehi has distanced herself from the Hindi version, stating she only shot the Kannada version and was not consulted for the Hindi release. Earlier, actor Sanjay Dutt appeared before the NCW, apologized, and committed to sponsoring education for tribal girls as part of corrective measures. The Hindi version of the song was removed from YouTube following public backlash, though it continues to circulate on other platforms.
