Chak De India and Nationalism
Chak De India released in India in 2007. It was directed by Shimit Amin, and it has been hailed as one of the biggest sports movies of the last decade. The movie is loosely based on the life of an ex India player, Mir Ranjan Negi, however Chak De does more than just use Mir Ranjan Negi’s story as a backdrop for a fast-paced drama. The movie throws up questions about the nationality of its characters, their loyalties to the nation state, and it reflects upon the concept of nation through the eyes of the protagonist (Kabir Khan).

The limits of fair criticism against court proceedings or judgements depends on the person making the critique?
In recent times we have seen a lot of contempt of court cases taken by the SC and various HCs in India. Contempt of court is provided as a reasonable restriction under article 19(2) of the constitution. But what exactly is contempt of court? It is basically disobedience or disrespect towards the court and its officers. The Contempt of Court Act 1971, under section 2 defines it to either civil contempt or criminal contempt. A civil contempt occurs when the judgement of the court is disobeyed willfully, or if there is a willful breach of the undertaking submitted to the court. For criminal defamation to occur it needs to have three things, a publication must scandalise the court, or it may interfere with the due process of the justice or it tends to obstruct the administration of the justice.
