Zee TV serials ( Jhansi Ki Rani)

Recently we had a chance to view Zee TV serial Jhansi Ki Rani .In this serial the dramtised version is not correct .I have one objection in my mind that so much torture by the then British rulers should not be shown on screen like beating the Indian slaves in jail,pulling out nails.taking out eyes by thrushing red hot iron rods in the eyes was too much barberous .We no doubt respect Jhansi Ki Rani who actually ignited the feeling of independence in 1857 and we term that year as the first war of Independence.Now the issue is that how can the children see these scenes?.On the other day a child was asking me why at all this type of behavior was being shown by the British soldiers towards indians who just wanted the freedom for their motherland.
This may be historically true but shoing such scenes to kids and adults is not correct.Such scenes should be censored and can only be shown to adults.These are my personnal views and in no way against any Govt policy or any person or firm

Hi JG, Sorry, as we had not seen this serial in full and had not viewed the scenes of atrocities by Britishers, it is difficult to let you know our views about it. However, we do notice that the contents of some of the TV Programs are not good at all for the children and such viewings must be marked for adult audience only. Well, your message does carry a very important message for the producers of TV Programs and especially serials etc.

Best of luck!

Dear Jijaji
Thanks for the comments .I agree that some serials on small screen should be censored and saggregated between those which are fit for children veiwing and adult veiwing.You will agree that childs brain is too tender and cannot bear the tortue scenes .It may be that the events might be true as stated in the history.
