After Akshay Kumar
starrer ENTERTAINMENT’s song Johnny
Johnny... haanji.. Tuney pee hai? naaji…. Which tainted the famous nursery
rhyme Johnny Johnny...Yes Papa…
another popular kid nursery rhyme - Lalla Lalla
Lori, Dhooth Ki Katori… has been plagiarized by Bollywood and yet again the
nursery rhyme has been maligned into offensive lines that are sure to pollute
the minds of kids.
The song in question is Lalla Lalla Lori, ‘Daaru’ Ki Katori….penned
by Mayur Puri and sung by Jigar,
Priya Panchal and Madhav Krishna in the forthcoming movie WELCOME 2 KARACHI starring
Arshad Warsi.
Annoyed
by the distortion of nursery rhymes a NGO has filled PIL against the Central Government,
Censor Board, the Delhi Government and producers Pooja Entertainment Pvt. Ltd
asserting the song promotes liquor consumption and ‘maligns’ a nursery rhyme.
The PIL underlines the
following stanza ….
Ab main chhota baccha nahi; Bournvita peeta nahi
Ghadi mein saat baje ; I'm on daaru ki katori
Daaru ko behne de; Thodi thodi thodi chadhne de
(I am not a small kid; I
have stopped drinking Bournvita
When it’s seven in clock,
I indulge in drinking
Let the alcohol flow;
little by little let me get intoxicated)
An activist from the NGO
claimed the lyrics of the song fall under the objectionable category of article
47 of the Indian constitution (duty of the state to improve the standard of
living and to improve public health affairs).
It further urged the court
to implement a policy wherein such objectionable film songs which malign nursery
rhyme must be banned and film producers strictly penalized.
Interestingly in
case of ENTERTAINMENT song too an NGO Early Childhood Association (ECA) had
raised it voice. They had even urged Bollywood filmmakers to spare nursery
rhymes from being distorted as films have lasting impression on young minds and
such songs can pollute their young minds.
Hope our so called
sensible filmmaker understand and keep aloof from tarnishing nursery rhyme and
content that evil has effect on our
children because they are the future of country and if our future is tainted
than what progress can we expect???
