CONCLUSION:
We need to understand that the content displayed to us and what is watched by us is not an inappropriate or wrong depiction of the facts. If the content is even fictional, the viewers and the directors need to understand that the content does not mislead the public or is not defaming specific associations' integrity, which is country pride. There have been certain instances where the public or certain authorities have raised their voice against the derogatory or defaming content, and due to public pressure, that content was removed. But we need to solve this problem from the basics. The directors have to stop directing such content, the writers need to stop writing these types of contents, and the producers need to stop putting their money. And even if such content is created, there should be a proper screening before releasing these contents because, in the end, the image of the cast and crew is at the cost and the most important, the idea of the authorities to which the content is related is also at a price. Mere acceptance or ignorance of displayed content can create a significant issue that can lead to riots. These problems can be solved with sheer focus and by not being negligible.
