Case Against Aamir Khan Over Nude 'PK' Poster

LUCKNOW: A case was filed in a court in Kanpur Saturday against Aamir Khan and the producer and director of new movie "PK" after its poster showed the Bollywood star in the nude except for a transistor covering his private parts.

In the complaint, lawyer Manoj Dixit accused the actor, producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra and director Rajkumar Hirani of promoting nudity and vulgarity.

The film is scheduled for release in December.

The court listed the case for Aug 7 when the contention of the petitioner would be heard and, if needed, the producer, director and actor will be served notice to appear before it.

The petitioner said Aamir Khan has considerable influence on the youth of today and any such act would only tempt youths to emulate him, thereby threatening the social order.

This in turn, he added, would lead to cases of sexual offences.

Many newspapers had printed posters of the forthcoming movie in which Aamir Khan is reportedly playing an alien.

Youngsters going crazy over soccer

BHOPAL: Traditionally Bhopal has been known as nursery of hockey. Of late, football clubs have also come up with city teenagers evincing keen interest in soccer.

As many as 16 football clubs and academies have started flourishing in the city. And some young players are also leaving their mark at national level tournaments.

A senior office-bearer of District Football Association said, "We have two to three players each in under-14, under-16 and under-19 national team from Bhopal. They all have been selected from open camps. In women's team, one girl has been selected from the city. We have good players till under-19, but their parents do not allow most of them to attend camps. We are losing many good players this way."

Feroz Khan, who is heading Barkatullah University Football Academy, for last three years said, "I started with two students and now I have more than 50 students with around 20 girls. The craze is evidently growing. Fitness with entertainment is major advantage. Recently, one of the girl, Chanchal Singh Kaushik, played senior nationals in Santosh Trophy in Assam. She is also state referee of Madhya Pradesh Football team."'

Rehmat Baig, coach of JRK Football Club, said, "Tarun Uikey and Rajeev Khaira have done really well from our club. Rajeev has been selected for All India Football Federation Academy in Mumbai for under-15 squad. Tarun has attended national camp two times besides playing under-16 and under-19 nationals representing the state and the state team got 3rd position in under-19. We have 16 to 17 boys with us, it is still growing."
