Dorothy, a movie directed by Karthik Subbaraj, is facing controversy in Malaysia due to its alleged LGBTQ+ content. The film, which stars Keerthy Suresh, Sananth, and Rishikanth, was released in theaters on September 25.
The movie has been under scrutiny for its portrayal of same-sex attraction, with some viewers demanding a ban. Despite the debate, the film has received support from others who defend its portrayal.
However, a recent report suggests that Dorothy may not receive a theatrical release in Malaysia. According to the report by The Hindu Tamil, the film has reportedly been denied a theatrical release in the country, citing LGBTQ-related content as the reason.
Keerthy Suresh, who plays the titular role, has also expressed her concerns over AI misuse after photos of her in suggestive outfits were morphed. The official Malaysian censorship order confirming the reported ban has not been confirmed yet, making the development a reported decision rather than an officially confirmed ban.
