SC dismisses Odisha govt plea against release of animated film 'Mahaprabhu Jagannath'

The Supreme Court dismissed Odisha's plea against the animated film 'Mahaprabhu Jagannath' release. Animation is a new art form for children and should not be curtailed. The court allowed the film's release after the Jagannath Yatra festivities concluded. Earlier, the High Court had stayed the movie's screening due to objections. Filmmakers invested heavily and faced significant financial losses if delayed.
