Christians Demand Ban on Jaat:
Sunny Deol and Randeep Hooda's Jaat has found itself in religious trouble. One scene featuring the villain, Randeep Hooda, has caused a stir among Christians, as it is said to have hurt their religious sentiments. Following this, the community demanded a ban on the film.

In one scene of the film, Randeep Hooda is seen entering the church and standing in front of Jesus' statue in a similar pose (crucifixation). However, instead of exhibiting nobility, his character commits a crime and kills people in the church. In that particular frame, the censor board asked the makers to blur the image of Jesus Christ, but still, the whole picture and scene are very disturbing.

Taking action against the religious disturbance, the Christian community in Punjab demanded a ban on the film. They were seen shouting slogans like "Randeep Hooda Murdabad," "Ban Jaat," and "Jaat movie band karo." A lady in Jalandhar stated that what the makers have shown cannot be pardoned. It's outrageous. The group protested outside a cinema hall, but the police stopped them. After that, they filed an official complaint with the police and asked them to ban the film within the next 48 hours. The community is also planning legal action against the makers of the film.
Directed by Gopichand Malineni, Jaat was released on April 10th and has done a decent business at the box office. Made on a budget of over Rs. 100 crore, the film has so far collected Rs. 51 crore nett at the Indian box office.
