'Go Goa Gone' gets notice from National Commission for Women on obscene song

Saif Ali Khan

NEW DELHI: The National Commission for Women has issued notice to the producers of the Saif Ali Khan starrer Go Goa Gone, raising objections in the song ‘Slowly Slowly‘ for using "offensive, abusive words including whore."

The notice sent last week has sought a reply within 10 days about the action taken following the complaint by the NCW. The complaint was initially received by the Women and Child Development Ministry and thereafter forwarded to the Commission.

The notice has been sent to Eros International CEO Kishore Lulla, Illuminati and Films Pvt Ltd founders Saif Ali Khan and Dinesh Vijan asking them to ensure that the ‘offensive‘ song is immediately deleted from the film and banned from public broadcast."

The Commission was told the song is "offensive and contains lyrics that encourage violence against women. It also contains veiled references to drug abuse through language that is particularly used as code for certain drugs.‘‘
