The information and broadcasting ministry has sought an explanation from Amazon Prime after a controversy over the recently released web-series 'Tandav', the Hindustan Times has reported quoting officials.
The ministry took the action after there were allegations that the show hurt religious sentiments. Earlier on Sunday, BJP MP Manoj Kotak wrote to I&B minister Prakash Javadekar seeking a ban on the series for allegedly ridiculing Hindu deities.
Officials from Amazon Prime Video told newsagency PTI that the platform “won’t be responding” to media queries on the matter.
