Yograj Singh Faces FIR Demand for Misogynistic Lines in 'Lukkhe' Series

In a bold move, Chandigarh lawyer Ujjwal Bhasin has petitioned the local SSP to register an FIR against Yograj Singh, the celebrated ex-cricketer and father to star Yuvraj Singh. The trigger? Yograj's offensive dialogue in the recently premiered OTT series 'Lukkhe' on Amazon Prime, where he plays a role disparaging a woman police officer. Detailed in his complaint, Bhasin highlighted how the lines belittle hardworking women balancing professional and domestic roles. 'These are our everyday heroes—moms feeding families after long workdays, sisters, spouses, daughters,' he told reporters. Shot with real Chandigarh police attire, the scene features actress Gurbaani Kaur, a name tied to Sikh sanctity, amplifying the perceived insult. Despite the gravity, officials haven't responded. Bhasin praised the female SSP's track record, including her extension, expressing faith in prompt FIR registration. 'This isn't Chandigarh-specific; it's an attack on every Indian working woman,' he emphasized. The fallout could dent Yograj's coaching reputation. 'Parents won't send kids to a man who disrespects women, forgetting he too was born of a mother,' Bhasin noted. Demanding accountability from the filmmaker too, he seeks a nationwide halt to the series. Backup plans include legal suits and women's commission appeals. As social media erupts, this incident spotlights the perils of unchecked scripts in entertainment, urging stricter oversight on content glorifying misogyny.
