The Thursday brings thirsty for love respect and hope Good day Date: 17-Sep-2014 11:05 AM Subject: Re:Protest against serial[Ref#2161219] To: Cc: Dear Ajit, Thank you for writing to us. We are glad that you took time off to share your feedback. With regards to your email, we would like to inform you that as responsible broadcaster, we would never do anything intentionally that would hurt our viewers sentiment or offend them in any way. Also we make sure that we adhere to the guidelines issued by Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (MIB) and Indian Broadcasting Foundation (IBF). All the content / shows telecast on Star comply with these guidelines. With regards to the specific issue, we would like to clarify that Nisha Aur Uske Cousins’ is a show about a Jain Joint Family. The young generation represented by Nisha and her cousins bring refreshing change while being completely rooted to the family values, beliefs and tradition. In its current story track, Dollys in-laws (one of Nisha’s cousin) who have invited Punjabi guests & thus request for Non-Veg to be served in the wedding for them. Dadaji refuses the food to be served even at the cost of marriage being called off, which showcases him as a man who can go to any extent to protect his family and religious values. Further, when by mistake the non-veg food is about to enter the wedding venue, the cousins anticipate and move fast to ensure the Non-Veg food stays away from the venue. Dealing with everyday issue in contemporary and cosmopolitans society, this track highlights the need to respect Individual’s choice, preference and respect owns tradition. Nisha and her cousins will raise to the occasion and deal with situation maturely and highlight their deep respect for Jain Community. Hope this clarifies!

Get all the latest coverage by connecting to us A Tel: + | 1800 3000 7827 Email: hello@startv Dear Sirs, It has come to our knowledge that a serial called Nishu aur cousins on Star Plus Hindi is being aired from your network. We want to bring to your notice that entire Jain community is feeling insulted and is aggreived by the story contents and the life style ( food habits and preferences ) of a Jain family shown in the serial. Please be informed that the Jainsism is based on following principles of Satya, Ahimsa, Achourya, Aparigrah, Syadwad, Anekantwad etc. Non vegeterianism means promotion of Hinsa ie cruelty against animals. In Jain community almost all the people not only follow strict vegeterian diet but majority of them even dont eat onion, garlic, carrot, potatoes etc ( vegetables grown underground ). You are therefore requested to please withdraw this serial immediately from your schedule and relay unconditional appologies for hurting religious sentiments of Jain community. Please note that if you fail to do so, a strong legal action will be taken against you, the producer, director and script writer of the serial by enormous Jain organisations from all over the world. Finally let us remind you that recently a serial called Bhagwan Mahaveer was stopped from airing on Doordarshan due to trmendous protests from Jain community. We are sure that you will take immediate action in this regards and avoid a nationwide stirr against Star TV network. Thanks and regards. Ajit Jain and thousands of aggreived Jains from Vadodara ( Gujarat )
