Bible’ in Kareena’s book’s title is hurtful to the sentiments of the Christian community.

Entertainment - Kareena Kapoor Khan has received a notice from the Madhya Pradesh High Court for using the word ‘Bible’ in the title of her book, ‘Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Pregnancy Bible.’ As reported by NDTV, the Bollywood actress was issued a notice after an advocate named Christopher Anthony filed a petition objecting to the book title and demanding a ban on it.
The advocate claimed that the use of the word ‘Bible’ in Kareena’s book’s title is hurtful to the sentiments of the Christian community. He also accused the diva of trying to gain “cheap publicity” for her book by using the word Bible. “Bible is the holy book of Christianity all over the world and it is wrong to compare Kareena Kapoor Khan’s pregnancy with the Bible,” he said.
Notice to Kareena Kapoor has been issued by a single-judge bench of Justice Gurpal Singh Ahluwalia. He has demanded an answer from the actress, explaining why she used the word Bible in the title of her book. Besides Kareena, the notice has also been issued to the sellers of the books.
Reportedly, the advocate first approached the police to file an FIR against the actress for her book, which was published in 2021. However, when police officials refused to file an FIR, he approached the lower court. His plea was rejected from the lower court too which ruled that the advocate failed to establish how the use of the word “Bible” in the title was offensive. Following this, advocate Anthony moved to the Additional Sessions Court but his petition was dismissed from there too.
