Janaki v/s State of Kerala

"Truth shall always prevail."

"Deputy Solicitor General of India OM Shalina told the Kerala High Court that the name Janaki, being another name for goddess Sita, could hurt religious sentiments. However, Justice N Nagaresh disagreed, stating, “She is the victim? If the rapist’s name was Ram, Krishna or Janaki, then it would have been understandable. Here she is the heroine, who is fighting for justice.”"

"The judge strongly asserted that it is not for the censor board to dictate the creative choices of filmmakers, including the names of characters. “What is wrong with the name Janaki? How is this an insult to religion? This is the freedom of the artist,” Justice Nagaresh asked pointedly."
