Reality of IC814 Controversy | Kandahar Flight Story | Open Letter
The Netflix web series "IC814: The Kandahar Hijack" has sparked controversy due to its portrayal of the 1999 Indian Airlines hijacking. Critics argue that the series, directed by Anubhav Sinha, inaccurately represents the hijackers by using Hindu pseudonyms like 'Bhola' and 'Shankar', potentially obscuring their real identities and religious affiliations. This has led to accusations of whitewashing terrorism and insensitivity towards national sentiments. The controversy has resulted in calls for a boycott on social media platforms, with hashtags like #BoycottNetflix and #BoycottBollywood trending. In response, Netflix has updated the series' disclaimer to include both real and code names of the hijackers, aiming to clarify the depiction.
