Be it IC 814, or Kabir Khan’s Tiger franchise, nobody does the PR job for ISI better than Bollywood. While Kabir Khan’s Tiger franchise whitewashed Pakistan’s ISI responsible for countless anti-India operations, Anubhav Sinha’s IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack serves the same purpose for Pakistani terrorists.
After much outrage from the viewers and after being summoned by Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, Netflix has agreed to add a small disclaimer at the start of IC814 series
The updation of the disclaimer for IC814 series comes after the content head Netflix India Monika Shergill met the Joint Secretary, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting in Delhi on Tuesday.
Indian Airlines Flight 814 was hijacked on 25th December 1999 while it was en route to Delhi from Kathmandu. It was carried out by 5 terrorists belonging to the Islamist outfit 'Harkat-ul-Mujahideen.'
Social media users claimed that the assassination of Jamali is the second assassination of IC-814, which came after the killing of another hijacker Zahoor Mistry who was killed on March first week.
