BCCC raps Star World for homosexual content in ‘Grey's Anatomy’

MUMBAI: The self-regulatory body for non-news entertainment channels, Broadcasting Content Complaints Council (BCCC), has pulled up Star India’s English entertainment channel Star World for airing, what it calls “objectionable” content, in its popular medical drama Grey’s Anatomy.

The scene exhibits homosexual encounter in the broadcast, which was reported objectionable by the regulatory body in the month of June.

The notice followed complaints from the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (MIB).

The BCCC has filled a report over a scene in which one of the characters in the series asks her male colleague to teach her how to satisfy her partner sexually by demonstrating it. 

Grey's Anatomy follows the lives of surgeons in a fictional setup and has been on air for over a decade.
