A legal notice regarding a kissing sequence between the lead characters in Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone's film Fighter has been received. The notification was given by Wing Commander Saumya Deep Das, an Indian Air Force officer.

IAF uniform and morals 

The IAF uniform is more than just a piece of apparel; it is a potent representation of a person's steadfast dedication to their work, national security, and selfless service. The notice's subject line read, Legal Notice for Defamation, Insult, and Negative Impact of the Indian Air Force and its Officers.
Here's what the wing commander has to say:  It said what followed: It embodies the highest ideals of sacrifice, discipline, and unwavering dedication to protecting our nation. By utilising this sacred symbol for a scene promoting personal romantic entanglements, the film grossly misrepresents its inherent dignity and devalues the profound sacrifices made by countless officers in service of our nation.

Craking down the case!

Additionally, it stated that kissing in uniform on a runway that comes under the purview of a technical area, while portrayed as romantic, is considered grossly inappropriate and unbecoming of an IAF officer, as it contradicts the high standards of discipline and decorum expected from them. Moreover, it normalises inappropriate behaviour in uniform, setting a dangerous precedent that undermines the moral and ethical standards expected from those entrusted with safeguarding our borders.
