  "account": "The Delhi High Court has directed the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to decide within a week on whether to modify a song in the film Mirzapur: The Movie. The court ruled that using a song dedicated to Maharana Pratap as background music for a fight scene is \"not in good taste.\" The bench of Chief Justice D. K. Upadhyaya and Justice Tejas Karia expressed concern that revering violent acts alongside the ideals of a revered historical figure creates an undesirable association. The producer of the movie has already proposed changes to the scene and is awaiting the CBFC's decision. The court listed the matter for hearing on September 24 and stated that if the producer modifies the song, the purpose of the petition will be met.",
  "summary": "The counsel for the producer said the song is only used in the background to \"embellish\" the climax where the protagonists are fighting with goons.",
